Nubble Light [Cape Neddick] is one of the most popular and most visited lighthouses in Maine. I intentionally arrived early in the morning before the skyline was crowded with tourists and lucky for me that I had the perfect light to capture this iconic site at its best with phenomenal weather.
What a blessing to have been able to capture this image of Nubble Lighthouse. I had to wait until the sun was in the right place in order to see it but it was well worth the wait to get the perfect reflection.
Maine’s rocky coast was the original inspiration for this lighthouse for which President Rutherford B. Hayes approved the $15,000 appropriation for it in 1874. In 1987 it became automated after which the city of York became the official and permanent guardian for Nubble Light.
There are several memorials and benches dedicated to and by private citizens on which to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery here. I don’t believe they are accepting new applications but I found it to be a wonderful way to commemorate loved ones on this beautifully serene place.
I’m thankful to my friend Jenn for bringing me here and giving me the blessing of finding this amazing spot on the Maine coast, a place I’d never been until now, but certainly one I will try to visit again in the future. Peaceful in the morning before the crowds came it was the perfect time to reflect on God’s goodness and grace.
