A couple of kilometres out on a kayak.
Not alone.
Behind me, across the bay, seal song sounded out from the caves.Not for the first time, from somewhere a butterfly fluttered by, heading towards the shore. For what seems an impossible adventure.

Man, if there were a place right at this moment I’d love to be … the Nubble Lighthouse in York, Maine, 2 September, 2026. Drone photo by Stephen Rideout.

America, One Moment at a Time — #7
The Lighthouse That Learned to Move
Nauset Light—with a little taste of Cape Cod.
My daughter spotted the coincidence: the Cape Cod chips she had brought along featured the very lighthouse we were standing beside.
I have always thought a lighthouse was supposed to be one of the more settled things in life.
It stands there.
The sea moves.
The ships move.
The weather changes.But the lighthouse stays put.
Apparently, I was wrong.
Nauset Light moves.
The lighthouse we see today in Eastham wasn’t even originally built there. The tower was built in 1877 as one of the Chatham Twin Lights and was moved to Eastham in 1923.
And then the Atlantic started doing what the Atlantic does.
It kept eating away at the coastline.
By 1996, less than 35 feet remained between the lighthouse and the cliff edge.
So someone had to make a rather unusual decision:
Move the lighthouse.
Not repaint it.
Not reinforce it.
Not tell the sea to behave itself.
Move it.
The entire 48-foot tower was moved about 300 feet inland to a new location across the road.
Nauset Beach Light Station, a Shifting Landmark” information board.
A lighthouse with an unusual history.
Standing there today, looking at that magnificent red-and-white tower, you would never know that it has already changed address twice.
It seems almost amusing.
We normally admire people who stand their ground.
But perhaps we should also admire those who know when the ground is no longer where it used to be.
Because sometimes circumstances change.
The familiar shore begins to disappear.
The things that once felt secure no longer are.
And then comes the difficult question:
Do I hold on—or do I move?
Lighthouse from the road
Nauset Light, Eastham, Cape Cod.
Nauset Light offers a rather elegant answer.
It didn’t stop being a lighthouse because it moved.
It simply carried its light with it.
Pushed Back by the Sea” — with the Atlantic Ocean beyond.
When the sea comes closer, sometimes you have to move.
Perhaps resilience isn’t always about staying exactly where we are.
Sometimes it is about recognising that the landscape has changed—and having the courage to move without losing what matters.
The lighthouse moved.
The light stayed.Maybe that’s the real lesson.

America, One Moment at a Time — #6
The Ocean Doesn’t Take Appointments
We boarded the whale-watching boat at Hyannis with one simple objective:
Find a whale.
The instructions seemed straightforward enough.
Go out to sea.
Look at the ocean.
Wait.The last part, as it turned out, was entirely up to the whale.
We had cameras ready.
Phones ready.
Eyes scanning the horizon.
Everyone seemed prepared for the great moment.
The whales, apparently, had not received the schedule.
And then they began to appear.
And then—there it was.
First a spout rising from the water.
Then a dark back breaking the surface.
Then another.
Two humpbacks, briefly above the surface.
For a few precious seconds, these enormous creatures revealed themselves to us before slipping quietly back beneath the waves.
Click. Click. Click.
We were beginning to get the hang of it.
And then, without warning, one of them breached.
For one glorious, impossible moment, this enormous creature launched itself out of the water.
We all saw it.
Nobody photographed it.
It happened too quickly.
By the time our cameras were pointed in the right direction, the whale was back where it belonged—underwater.
And somehow, I think that made the moment even more special.
We are so accustomed to photographs, videos and screens that we expect everything worth seeing to remain available for us to capture, replay and share.
But the ocean doesn’t work that way.
The whale appears when it chooses.
The moment arrives when it arrives.
And then it is gone.And then, a wave goodbye.
Perhaps that’s part of the wonder.
Some moments are meant to be witnessed, not captured.
We went looking for whales.
What we found was also a little lesson in patience.
And a reminder that the world doesn’t always perform on demand.
Sometimes you just have to wait, watch—and be ready when it decides to say hello.

"Rosebank, the largest untapped oil field in the North Sea, lies around 80 miles north-west of Shetland, while Jackdaw is around 150 miles east of Aberdeen."
If you're 80 miles north west of Shetland you are in the Atlantic Ocean not the North Sea

Huge Photo Walk
I went on an epic photographing journey today. I went to two locations and I walked something like four miles. Who even am I?
I paid for it with chores though. The cellar has been put back together after twice being blown off by a contractor. I won’t say it is “clean” but I will say it is drastically “cleaner” and that’s good enough for me. Speaking of contractors, yet another is scheduled to come by tomorrow to fix a piece of broken furniture in my step son’s room. Along with cleaning the cellar, I got everything ready for that too. Now it’s time to post some photos and then its time to nap.
I had a bunch on my photo to-do list this morning. One, shoot the sunrise (which required me getting out of bed at 4:00am and being on the road toward Hampton Beach, NH by 4:20… yikes!). Two put a roll of 35mm film through my new (to me) Nikon N90. Three, complete the Frugal Film Project for this month. Four, use the crap out of the 70–210mm zoom lens I got with the N90 on my Nikon Z5 via the FTZii adapter that I mistakenly called the F2Zii adapter in a post yesterday. Five, if possible finish off the roll of film in my Nikon FG-20 that’s been sitting there since March or so. In all five cases, mission accomplished.
I did not ship out the film for developing yet. I am planning on taking the N90 to my nephew’s high school graduation party next week (CONGRATULATIONS!!!!) and I might try to sneak in a second photowalk next Sunday too, if the weather cooperates. I’ll wait until after that to ship out the film. As usual, the day of blog post is only digital photos. Unlike all of my previous posts with images shot on my Z5, this one has a zoom lens. Not only a zoom lens, but a 70–210mm zoom lens!
First stop, Hampton Beach where the sky was completely clear and I saw the sun come out of the water. Success!

I drove up the coast a ways to get a different view. This time from way up a hill. The tide was so far out you had to walk half way to France to get to the water. It kinda took some of the granduer out of it for me. Oh well.

The next stop was the two Rail Trails in Newburyport, MA. One is called Clipper, I think, and the other is called Harbor… I think. The plan was to shoot film while walking away from the car, and then to shoot digital while walking back. So these first shorts are on the Harbor trail after I turned around. The sun reflecting off the water was kinda brutal. My Z5 and N90 both had fast enough shutter speeds to handle it, but my FG-20 and my Lomo Lubitell were struggling. I’m a tiny bit nervous about how some of those shots are going to turn out.

The next stop was the two Rail Trails in Newburyport, MA. One is called Clipper, I think, and the other is called Harbor… I think. The plan was to shoot film while walking away from the car, and then to shoot digital while walking back. So these first shorts are on the Harbor trail after I turned around. The sun reflecting off the water was kinda brutal. My Z5 and N90 both had fast enough shutter speeds to handle it, but my FG-20 and my Lomo Lubitell were struggling. I’m a tiny bit nervous about how some of those shots are going to turn out.

Huge Photo Walk
I went on an epic photographing journey today. I went to two locations and I walked something like four miles. Who even am I?
I paid for it with chores though. The cellar has been put back together after twice being blown off by a contractor. I won’t say it is “clean” but I will say it is drastically “cleaner” and that’s good enough for me. Speaking of contractors, yet another is scheduled to come by tomorrow to fix a piece of broken furniture in my step son’s room. Along with cleaning the cellar, I got everything ready for that too. Now it’s time to post some photos and then its time to nap.
I had a bunch on my photo to-do list this morning. One, shoot the sunrise (which required me getting out of bed at 4:00am and being on the road toward Hampton Beach, NH by 4:20… yikes!). Two put a roll of 35mm film through my new (to me) Nikon N90. Three, complete the Frugal Film Project for this month. Four, use the crap out of the 70–210mm zoom lens I got with the N90 on my Nikon Z5 via the FTZii adapter that I mistakenly called the F2Zii adapter in a post yesterday. Five, if possible finish off the roll of film in my Nikon FG-20 that’s been sitting there since March or so. In all five cases, mission accomplished.
I did not ship out the film for developing yet. I am planning on taking the N90 to my nephew’s high school graduation party next week (CONGRATULATIONS!!!!) and I might try to sneak in a second photowalk next Sunday too, if the weather cooperates. I’ll wait until after that to ship out the film. As usual, the day of blog post is only digital photos. Unlike all of my previous posts with images shot on my Z5, this one has a zoom lens. Not only a zoom lens, but a 70–210mm zoom lens!
First stop, Hampton Beach where the sky was completely clear and I saw the sun come out of the water. Success!

It’s been a while but I did something mildly creative this morning. Not really, but a little bit.
For the first time since August I filled up a back pack with cameras and went outside a-shootin’. Digital, film, the works.
More often than not when I start feeling the photo-takin’ need I head to the ocean at sunrise. That’s what I did today. As sunrises go it sort of blew chunks. The forecast I read last night said it would be clear skies at sunrise today. It was not. Not even close. There was a little gap between the horizon and the cloud cover that sort of let me see the sun when it rose, but it was a pretty underwhelming view. Thanks to our friend the Nikon Z5 with the cheap-ish 85mm Chinese made lens I can show you what I’m talking about…
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242277189/in/album-72177720333420003/
At least the waves looked cool. They were about as high as this little corner of the Atlantic Ocean gets.

There’s our friend, Mr Sun. It was trying its best to break through.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242277649/in/album-72177720333420003
My sunrise stop this morning was at Salisbury Beach which is on the Massachusetts side of the state line. I was planning on starting at Hampton Beach in New Hampshire, but I needed to stop for gas and I knew there were a few stations on the way to Salisbury so I wouldn’t have to go out of my way. Also, Salisbury is closer to home so it gave me more time to take care of things before the sun came up.
After a few minutes on the beach I wandered around the area a little bit looking for things to shoot… and I ended up more or less shooting the same things that I almost always shoot when I go there. Oh well.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242185648/in/album-72177720333420003

Every now and then the sun would break through the clouds and we’d get a few seconds of glorious golden hour light but the clouds kept getting in the way and blocking the sun. It was a little frustrating.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242043196/in/album-72177720333420003
After a few minutes of wandering around I got in the car and drove up to Hampton Beach. That’s two towns North across the New Hampshire state line. I stopped at a usual fishing boat view. Again, the sun kept breaking through and going away. I think I got some good light here using one of the film cameras, but not so much using the digital.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242186228/in/album-72177720333420003
As usual, let’s all say hello to the Seabrook Nuclear Power Plan before it blows up and melts everyone.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242186418/in/album-72177720333420003
Out on the beach itself, would it surprise anyone to learn that this pic was a total accident? It probably shouldn’t.

https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242279654/in/album-72177720333420003
I left Hampton Beach and headed South to Plum Island to say hello to the Merrimack River and the Plum Island Lighthouse. I made the obligatory stop at the airfield as well.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242044771/in/album-72177720333420003
By this time the sky was pretty blue. The clouds were losing the battle.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242442925/in/album-72177720333420003
Is the water at Plum Island the bluest water on Earth? It’s gotta be in the running, right?
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55241138947/in/album-72177720333420003
I mean… seriously… just look at that.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242045386/in/album-72177720333420003

https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242281674/in/album-72177720333420003
And in closing… the Plum Island Lighthouse… which has to be the most underwhelming lighthouse in the world. I mean it’s not even as tall as the trees that surround it. It’s also not even on the water. It’s a little ways down the street from the river. How effective can it be?
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242190423/in/album-72177720333420003
There you have it. A few highlights from this morning’s wanderings. I also shot some film. I had a black and white roll in my FG-20 that was loaded back in August and still had a few shots left (Kentmere 400). Last night I put a roll of Lomography 800 into Dad’s K1000 and a roll of Kodak Gold 200 into my medium format camera. I finished all three rolls and mailed them off to the lab to get them developed. Hopefully I won’t have to wait too long to share the film version of this masterpiece of a post. Be on the lookout.
Will there be another photowalk tomorrow? Depends on the weather. I am off work again on Tuesday too so there could be something then, again if the weather cooperates. Hopefully it will be better than today but who knows.
It felt good to just go outside and shoot stuff, even if it was really cold on the water. Summer is coming. Maybe some day soon I’ll be able to repeat this experience without wearing a winter jacket. That would be sweet, huh?

More often than not when I start feeling the photo-takin’ need I head to the ocean at sunrise. That’s what I did today. As sunrises go it sort of blew chunks. The forecast I read last night said it would be clear skies at sunrise today. It was not. Not even close. There was a little gap between the horizon and the cloud cover that sort of let me see the sun when it rose, but it was a pretty underwhelming view. Thanks to our friend the Nikon Z5 with the cheap-ish 85mm Chinese made lens I can show you what I’m talking about…

At least the waves looked cool. They were about as high as this little corner of the Atlantic Ocean gets.

There’s our friend, Mr Sun. It was trying its best to break through.

My sunrise stop this morning was at Salisbury Beach which is on the Massachusetts side of the state line. I was planning on starting at Hampton Beach in New Hampshire, but I needed to stop for gas and I knew there were a few stations on the way to Salisbury so I wouldn’t have to go out of my way. Also, Salisbury is closer to home so it gave me more time to take care of things before the sun came up.
After a few minutes on the beach I wandered around the area a little bit looking for things to shoot… and I ended up more or less shooting the same things that I almost always shoot when I go there. Oh well.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242185648/in/album-72177720333420003
Someday I will be there when these lights are actually on.

Every now and then the sun would break through the clouds and we’d get a few seconds of glorious golden hour light but the clouds kept getting in the way and blocking the sun. It was a little frustrating.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242043196/in/album-72177720333420003
After a few minutes of wandering around I got in the car and drove up to Hampton Beach. That’s two towns North across the New Hampshire state line. I stopped at a usual fishing boat view. Again, the sun kept breaking through and going away. I think I got some good light here using one of the film cameras, but not so much using the digital.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242186228/in/album-72177720333420003
As usual, let’s all say hello to the Seabrook Nuclear Power Plan before it blows up and melts everyone.

https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242187043/in/album-72177720333420003

https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242279654/in/album-72177720333420003
I left Hampton Beach and headed South to Plum Island to say hello to the Merrimack River and the Plum Island Lighthouse. I made the obligatory stop at the airfield as well.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242044771/in/album-72177720333420003
By this time the sky was pretty blue. The clouds were losing the battle.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242442925/in/album-72177720333420003
Is the water at Plum Island the bluest water on Earth? It’s gotta be in the running, right?
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55241138947/in/album-72177720333420003
I mean… seriously… just look at that.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242045386/in/album-72177720333420003
I don’t know anything about this boat except that I shoot it every time I come here.
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242281674/in/album-72177720333420003
And in closing… the Plum Island Lighthouse… which has to be the most underwhelming lighthouse in the world. I mean it’s not even as tall as the trees that surround it. It’s also not even on the water. It’s a little ways down the street from the river. How effective can it be?
https://www.flickr.com/photos/robj_1971/55242190423/in/album-72177720333420003
There you have it. A few highlights from this morning’s wanderings. I also shot some film. I had a black and white roll in my FG-20 that was loaded back in August and still had a few shots left (Kentmere 400). Last night I put a roll of Lomography 800 into Dad’s K1000 and a roll of Kodak Gold 200 into my medium format camera. I finished all three rolls and mailed them off to the lab to get them developed. Hopefully I won’t have to wait too long to share the film version of this masterpiece of a post. Be on the lookout.
Will there be another photowalk tomorrow? Depends on the weather. I am off work again on Tuesday too so there could be something then, again if the weather cooperates. Hopefully it will be better than today but who knows.
It felt good to just go outside and shoot stuff, even if it was really cold on the water. Summer is coming. Maybe some day soon I’ll be able to repeat this experience without wearing a winter jacket. That would be sweet, huh?

Hype for the Future 64F: Boothbay Area, Maine
Introduction The Towns of Boothbay and Boothbay Harbor are largely associated with the summer season, both along the Atlantic Ocean with Boothbay slightly further inland (north) within Lincoln County, Maine. Though Monhegan Island and its associated plantation may be more accessible from Knox County to the east, the island area is also considered part of Lincoln County, albeit separately identified from the Boothbay communities. Boothbay Harbor is situated to the south of Boothbay and is […]https://novatopflex.wordpress.com/2026/01/03/hype-for-the-future-64f-boothbay-area-maine/
