Bing Wallpaper does it again!

Once again I have to sing the praises of Bing Photography. I’ve mentioned it here before — from razorbills to green sea turtles, their wildlife shots are breathtaking — but this morning they surprised me with an old friend on my desktop: a true New England icon.

Portland Head Light, the oldest lighthouse in Maine and one of the most photographed in the Northeast, was waiting for me when I logged on.

Here’s what greeted me this morning…
And here’s one of my photos of this spectacular lighthouse.

Not too shabby for an old amateur.”

Choosing one picture for this post was so hard. The rugged Maine Coast is magnificent. Acadia National Park is beautiful so this may not be the most striking or the most beautiful picture I’ve ever taken but it is one of the most unusual. I don’t run across rock climbers that often.

Look very, very close…

Can you see it? Look very close. I thought it was dust on the lens but once I put it on the “Big screen” of the computer I saw a row-boat! It’ so tiny that I didn’t even see it when I was taking the picture. I could have enlarged it for you but I just want to see how many followers can find it in the original photo.. 🙂
