“Perhaps I should not have been a fisherman, he thought. But that was the thing that I was born for.” ~ Ernest Hemingway, The Old Man and the Sea || Stonington Maine is everything I have been looking for in the fishing villages of Maine. The harbor is filled with fishing boats and the small houses sit on the hills overlooking the sea; watching the fishermen and women head out to sea, risking their lives to provide for their families and for us. It is a town that shows the ruggedness of Maine, the strength of the men and women who live there and the beauty that surrounds it all! #mainefishing #lobsterboat #lobsterfishermen #mainefishermen #maine #mainetheway #mainethewaylifeshouldbe #midcoastmaine #mainelife #mainecoast #maineaquaculture #mainephotography #mainevacationland #pinetreestate #maineocean #vacationland #maine_igers #maineigers #newengland_igers #newengland #nikonnofilter #maineboats #stonington #whereinmaine #thepinetreestate #fishingvillage #mainelobster #mainelobstermen (at Stonington, Maine) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVdOT9Mg9PB/?utm_medium=tumblr

The Fisherman || A man stands alone against the ocean and it’s monsters with a simple fishing rod. A meal tonight or a day filled with peaceful meditation. He gazes out to the open expanse of water, imagining the fish that will feed his family or he stares into the abyss of the blue sea that calls him back every day for food and thought. This is why I love Maine! #fishermen #mainefishermen #fishing #maine #mainetheway #mainethewaylifeshouldbe #mainecoast #mainelife #mainecoast #fishingmaine #raw_maine #mainephotographers #staymaine #maineocean #ocean #sea #blue #maineigers #maine_igers #mainemag #downeastmagazine #yankeemagazine (at Nubble Lighthouse) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUIZlaAF2HV/?utm_medium=tumblr
