Winter Salt Marsh at Kettle Cove, Maine

On a recent winter trip to Maine, we stomped around lovely Kettle Cove, just over the hill and south of Two Lights in Cape Elizabeth.  Kettle Cove is connected to Crescent Beach, but has some great walking trails... if you don't have to contend with ice and snow.  Don't let the blue morning sky fool you; here's a small, icy salt marsh stream surrounded by spindly trees and tall, dead salt grasses, dried and stiffened by the bitter freezing February ocean air.

My son Sam visited Harbor Island in Maine (the one further north) last summer and caught some great shots of some beautiful Atlantic coastline.  It's an isolated place, peaceful and wild, he says.  This is a view toward the west at sunset just as a strong summer thunderstorm subsided and passed.
