Description
This photo captures the beautiful iconic symbol of Maine, the Portland Head Light. It has been ranked as one of the most beautiful and most photographed lighthouses in the United States.
Portland Head Light
Portland Head Light, is a historic lighthouse in Cape Elizabeth, Maine. The light station sits on a head of land at the entrance of the primary shipping channel into Portland Harbor, which is within Casco Bay in the Gulf of Maine. Completed in 1791, it is the oldest lighthouse in the state of Maine. The light station is automated, and the tower, beacon, and foghorn are maintained by the United States Coast Guard, while the former lighthouse keepers' house is a maritime museum within Fort Williams Park.

Beautiful Felix! I live about 30 minutes away from PHL. Next time you are up, if you want to, let me know.

Thank you, Elizabeth. I will keep it in mind next time when I travel to Maine for fall foliage.
