Foliage in Acadia

Today was a very nice fall day for Maine, roughly in the 50's, cool and crisp with a bright sunshine. I got up early today... I normally sleep in. I saw that it was a nice clear day so I got ready and headed for Bar Harbor, Maine.

The Foliage on the way to Bar Harbor was very pretty, so many bright yellow and orange leaves, they gave off their own radiance as if they have a light source within. After I passed through Ellsworth, I was nearly to Bar Harbor, I could see the Ocean, the tide was out, which is just what I wanted. I stopped and took a few photos of the seaweed beach. It's amazing to think how the moon affects so many things on this Earth. After taking photos and just sitting on a rock breathing in the salty air I got in the car and made my way to Bar Harbor. I decided to take one of the Acadia routes around Cadillac Mountain and towards Sand Beach. There were surprisingly a lot of people at the beach, not swimming of course, but just hanging out. Sand Beach is made of sand and tiny pieces of sea shells. It was great to relax on the beach and climb the salted rocks to the right of Sand Beach. I've seen a lot of beaches, but you can only see a beach like this in Maine or in other eastern States. You first see the Ocean, then the sandy beach and then Evergreens all in one package.

After awhile, I headed towards Thunder Hole, which is a cave in the ledge along the beach, when the tide is in, it makes a thundering canon noise, hence the name. After the sites, I just drove throughout the park and took random photos of the scenery. I kept thinking, "How can anyone say and believe that there is no God?". Everywhere you look, you see His Glory and works in His Creation. There is no way that everything you see from the chemical makeup of metals that form from different elements to the very simplistic way of communication, mathematics, "just happened". Everything is created to Glorify God, see Romans 11:36.

So, for all of readers out there, here are some photos for you to enjoy. They are cropped to save bandwidth, but if you'd like to have the original size, send me an e-mail.
