We all got lost in the uncanny valley

[sovay]

En route this afternoon to a family occasion in Maine, spatch and rushthatspeaks and I took half an hour to find some sea and ended up at the Nubble Light. I love Edward Hopper's New England paintings, I just didn't realize they were naturally occurring.

So beautiful! I absolutely approve of finding some sea whenever possible! <3

It's a moral imperative!

[thawrecka]

Pretty!

[sovay]

This is unutterably gorgeous!

It was ridiculous! There were gulls and cormorants and other people also enjoying the view.

[sovay]

Pretty!

Thank you! The light was incredible. It looked storm-coming, but never lost the sun and never broke.

[muccamukk]

Wow, look at that sky!

[gwynnega]

What a beautiful photo!

[sovay]

What a beautiful photo!

Thank you! The scenery did most of the work.

[sovay]

Wow, look at that sky!

It just went around looking like that! We had a gorgeous sunset as we finished the drive.

Stunning! The sea (at any rate) welcomed you whole-heartedly.

It is important to us. It's good that it's reciprocated!

We traveled on the same day! You all to Maine, us to New Hampshire. And this sky, so dark, with the light bright underneath it--we enjoyed it too. You've got the Nubble Light bright against it; for us it was Jersey cows, like quiet gods high on a hill. We didn't get a photo, though, and yours is lovely.

Oh, natural beauty is such a respite on days of occasion, I'm so glad.

[umadoshi]

Oh, wow! *^^*

[aurumcalendula]

That's wonderful! Even if you didn't take a photo, thank you for passing the picture on to me.

[sovay]

Oh, wow!

There were gulls and cormorants and the kelp-smell of ebbing tide. And other people, watching the light.

[sovay]

Thay's a lovely photo! (And yay for finding some sea!)

Thank you!

[sovay]

goodness, yes.

It was great.

That's such a white white!

There just doesn't seem to be any weathering on the buildings at all.

[cyphomandra]

That’s so lovely! You can almost see the brushstrokes.

It's very well kept up! It's automated, but still has its original Fresnel lens. I have just been stricken to discover that the Cape Elizabeth Light of my childhood no longer does.

Thank you! The light did it.

It looked storm-coming, but never lost the sun and never broke.

I love this.

[sovay]

I love this.

Thank you.
