Maine Midcoast - Self Guided Photo Workshop E-Book
Maine Midcoast - Self Guided Photo Workshop E-Book
The goal of the Self-Guided Workshop Series is to eliminate the time spent finding and scouting out locations and allowing you to spend more time photographing beautiful landscapes. I have spent hundreds of hours scouting out locations, first with the many online tools and then visiting the location in person, in some cases multiple times. The images are from some of my favorite locations and the photo data in the e-book is meant to represent a starting point, but since every day brings different weather, lighting, colors and opportunities, I trust you will quickly find your own representation of the scene.
Besides the images, the following information is included:
Description of the location
GPS and/or address of the parking and the location linked to Google Maps
Trail information including length of time, difficulty and anything unique that exists from where you park to the photo location
Best time of the year to visit
Best time of day to visit
Optimal conditions/weather
Recommended photo gear
Complete list of settings for images

Maine’s midcoast is dramatic with peninsulas like fingers reaching out into the sea. With a strong history of fishermen, this part of Maine is rich in heritage with spectacular sights - lighthouses, lobster boats, fishing shacks, granite shorelines and the tide lapping on the beach. These are the images of midcoast Maine. The same scenery that inspired the Wyeth family of artists, boat builders and lobsterman and remains in many ways unchanged.
This eBook focuses on the peninsulas that dangle down from Route 1 on the 50 mile stretch from Brunswick/Bath to Camden/Rockland. Many of these are made up of islands, but I will only cover those that can be reached by car or short hikes and because it is Maine, I have also included my favorite lobster shack on each peninsula.
