Little Long Pond – opposite Bracey Cove – is one of my “go to” places at this time of year when the water lillies are out in full force. Normally I just enjoy the view looking over the water toward Penobscot Mountain in the distance, but on this occasion we wandered along the side of the pond for about half a mile and enjoyed some lush, pretty views. The vibrant June greens and the deep, deep blue late afternoon sky made for an exceptional sight and a very enjoyable stroll.
Beautiful place. I like both pond views. The sky in the second one adds a lot to the composition. The clouds were cooperating!
It is a beautiful place, isn’t it? The lillies were amazing, but I also wanted to show the awesome sky – that’s why I did a vertical in the last one.
Beautiful work !!
Thanks Bernie. I appreciate the kind words
Beautiful photos – reminds me a place you could just reflect, breathe and find some inner peace:)
Thanks. This is a favorite place of mine to visit for that very reason.
Lovely. I hope you can make it back when they’re in bloom. Wish it was that green here. We’re in a drought with lots of fires. Thanks for sharing such a refreshing place.
We’ve had a lot of rain… almost too much. Here’s hoping you get cooled off soon.
So pretty….
Thanks Scott.
I’ve read that some of the views from Little Long Pond were the ones that Charles Eliot thought the most beautiful of all of Mount Desert Island!
Lynn… it’s a special little view for sure… one that I keep coming back to. I can see why it is so highly thought of.
BEAUTIFUL WORK. I UNDERSTAND WHY YOU ENJOY GOING HERE. ISN’T WONDERFUL HOW MOTHER NATURE IS ABLE TO PROVIDE FOR US SO MANY NATURAL RESORTS WHERE WE CAN TRULY RELAX MIND, BODY AND SOUL. THANK YOU FOR GIVING OUR EYES A SLICE OF MOTHER NATURE’S RESORTS AND SOME REST FOR OUR EYES.
Thanks marialla. Couldn’t agree more
Beautiful. It’s like taking a vacation, only cheaper.
Thank you!
Just gorgeous and inspiring!
Thank you… it’s a pretty little place.
