Willard Beach Sunset

This was just after my last post with the 🌈 , a very dynamic weather situation. My buddy Jon and I were heading from there to shoot the sunset over the Portland skyline when I noticed that we were going to get another window of light. I thought Spring Point would be a good spot with the more directional light, so we changed course and headed that way.   However, as soon as I saw what was happening over Willard Beach, all plans were off. We raced down onto the SMCC campus and I showed Jon the famous view of the fishing shacks and PHL that Jack Milton popularized. The departing storm was absolutely aflame with light and color and an unbelievably beautiful low mist was forming over the ocean. It was photography heaven! And who do I see after a few minutes there? Jack! It was a great time, one that I’ll never forget. Oh, and the 🌮 at Taco Trio weren’t too bad afterwards!   Check out both of these talented dudes’ takes on this scene and see how differently we “see”.
