Lighthouse Parade and Adventure Photography

July 5-11

Yes, it's a six-night trip but it will take that long to cover a tour of the lighthouse museum here in Rockland, visit several lighthouses we support along the coast, spend some island time with a shore picnic, get in some sailing, hopefully a day offshore, and still come back rested but exhilarated.  And if you enter and happen to win the photo contest in 2015, you'll have a free trip for the next season. 

As one of the people who has sailed with us on other Adventure Photography trips, Mikael Carstanjen made this observation:  "The winning photographs in the MWA contest for the last 3 years were taken during the Lighthouse Trip."

Greg explains his part better:

 One picture or many, adventure photography is about telling a story with photos.  Sailing on the Schooner American Eagle with its photo-rich environment presents an opportunity to explore your photography skills and tell a story of your adventure. Sunrises, sunsets, and life on a historic schooner combined with shore excursions will provide an abundant amount of photography choices.  Sharing the camaraderie and photo techniques with other like-minded photographers on board can inspire your photography experience and improve your skills. Challenge yourself with adventure photography on the Schooner American Eagle.       

Name that Flag 
 
 

Here's another opportunity to win an American Eagle hat by being the first to identify this flag, and don't ask me;  I don't know the answer, well, not yet.  Help me out here.
