This gallery is a complete chronicle of my 40th year, starting on my birthday in 2008. I posted one photo each day for a year. The photo-a-day project continues in this gallery here.
June 9, 2008; Day 38. Tonight my friends decided to wander through Prescott Park, a very nice place in Portsmouth. There are several gardens and fountains, and the park lines the Piscataqua River, which separates Maine from New Hampshire. This river may have the fastest tidal current in North America.
From the park you can easily observe Memorial Bridge taking U.S. Rte 1 traffic from NH to Maine and back. This bridge is well-lit at night so expect a nighttime shot once the days get shorter.
The middle section is periodically raised to allow tall boats to pass through. You can see the M.V. Thomas Laighton approaching the bridge.
Raw: Crop ~5%
Raw: Vibrance: 100 (just having fun)
PS: Color Balance: 10 Yellow to Blue
