Smoke on the Water
As negative air temperatures settle over the Atlantic, a mesmerizing phenomenon occurs around Portland Head Light. The cold air chills the water, causing steam to rise from the ocean’s surface, creating the illusion of smoke billowing upward. This ethereal mist envelops the coastline, adding a mystical quality to the iconic lighthouse and its surrounding landscape. The combination of the crisp air and the warm ocean creates a striking contrast, transforming the scene into a breathtaking visual tapestry that captivates both locals and visitors alike. The beauty of this singular moment highlights the unique interplay between sea and sky in this historic maritime locale.
