This photograph is often misidentified as having been taken at Mount Desert Island. Archivists at the Southwest Harbor Public Library have researched the origin of the sitting and hope other copies will be correctly identified.

Photographer George Soules posted the following on his blog for Nov 16, 2013: Last night the Southwest Harbor Public Library on Mount Desert Island held a Lantern Walk. "As the days start to grow shorter we start to think about light and ways we can celebrate it. A lantern walk is an observance of the changing season." In preparation for this event, all were invited to come to the library the Thursday before to make lanterns. Janice was there as a volunteer helping the children glue colored paper onto tall glass wide mouth jars. On Friday, participants met at 5:00 PM at the High Road parking lot in Southwest Harbor and walked down Causeway Lane with lanterns lit. Then, aided by the glow of a full moon, they carefully navigated the path down to the water and gathered on the rocks for some storytelling before heading back. Janice and I tagged along with the hope of getting some pictures that captured the feel of this magical evening. I used a Canon 5D Marl II DSLR mounted on a tripod with a Canon 24-70mm lens at f/2.8. I exposed the scene for 2 seconds at ISO 1600. Thanks to the moonlight, the surrounding area was nicely exposed as well.

Rebecca, an attractive and lively teenager, was 15 years old at the time of this dance. Judging from her scrapbook she seems to have enjoyed all the social events of her time and wrote on this ticket, "Wonderful Time."
