Bass Harbor Glow

The Bass Harbor Head Light Station is located in Tremont, Maine, marking the entrance to Bass Harbor and Blue Hill Bay on the southwest corner of Mount Desert Island. The step ledges make it somewhat difficult to photograph from any angle other than looking west, as in this image. This iconic lighthouse represented Maine in the America the Beautiful quarter in series, making it's debut in 2012, the NPS centennial postage stamp in 2016, and was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
