Now it’s Winter

I used to love winter. I was an avid skier, liked to snowshoe, the frosty air invigorated me. No longer, it is cold and dark. But there are lots of beautiful sights in the winter, plus it is a good time to learn new photo and video software. And, airplanes love the cold, my plane jumps off the runway with hardly any takeoff roll due to the cold, dense air.

For those interested, I’m using iMovie on both the iPad and a nice new Mac Book Pro. I am also using Final Cut Pro on the laptop. For stills, I am back to Adobe’s Lightroom and Photoshop. I’m even dabbling with GarageBand for sound tracks, but think I’ll mostly be using the iPad’s iMovie soundtracks.

Pownal Courthouse

This Courthouse was built in the 1760’s and according to Wikipedia is the only surviving precolonial Courthouse in Maine. John Adams came all the way from Boston, by boat, to try a case here. On occasion, the Maine Supreme Court will use this early venue.

This Courthouse is part of my Kennebec River tour.

Property along Mid Coast Maine



Androken Aerial scenic and photo flights can help you keep track of your camp. If you do not have the time to drive up, I can fly up and send you pictures of property. If you are planning landscaping or other major building projects, I can use a drone to capture detailed pictures or videos of your buildings and land.

Scenic Flights

Midcoast Maine is a beautiful area for scenic flights. While I am limited to a 25 statute mail circle around the Wiscasset airport, there is much to see. Sights include Pemaquid Point, Boothbay Harbor, Bath, Brunswick, Casco Bay and the Kennebec and Androscoggin rivers.

SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY RATE: Up to a  full hour of flying is $200/hour (Normally $275/hour) for the airplane, 3 passengers can fly.
