Summer Sunset at Nubble Lighthouse

Nubble Light is one of my favorite spots in southern Maine. The lighthouse sits on a rocky iselt separated from the mainland by a small channel. The geography of Sohier Point means that you can usually find a good composition almost every month of the year for sunrise or sunset. On this particular evening, It had been raining all day. Just as the sun set to the west, the storm clouds lifted up and started to glow in the fading sunlight.
