The sun seemed to be wishing 2009 a fond farewell last Thursday. The snow that had been lightly falling throughout the day stopped just in time for the brilliant pinky orange orb in the sky to shine brightly as it descended below the powder-coated trees. In the hopes that the sky would be clear enough [...]

Favorite Fall Film Photos

Fall is my favorite season. I don’t think it was always that way. I wasn’t thrilled to go back to school or to rake the piles upon piles of leaves the maple trees strew across my family’s lawn when I was growing up. But as an adult, it’s ideal. The tourists are largely gone. It’s [...]

Okay, so it’s been a while. Sorry. The past couple of months have been a jumble of personal and work trips, and they aren’t over yet. Here are a few of the pictorial highlights. LATE AUGUST: We visited my sister in Connecticut, where there were wildflowers, fog…. a bathtub in the woods… farm-fresh fingerlings and [...]

A Smattering of Summer Shots

I’ll write soon about some fun recent work I’ve done, but for now thought I’d distract you with some of my favorite personal shots taken during this crazy summer that has been both maddeningly wet and stiflingly hot at times. Still, we managed to get out and enjoy the outdoors and our vegetables did grow, [...]

For those of you who missed the opening at the University of New England Gallery of Art last night, well, you really missed out! It was a great turn out and the collection of images is superb. Hats off to Steve Halpert for curating a great show. There is still plenty of time to see [...]
In Weston’s Wake

Edward Weston was one of the first fine art photographers that inspired me when I began taking black and white landscape photos a dozen years ago. His need for, and mastery of, precise, orderly composition and his acute awareness of the range of nature’s tones are things I strive for in my work as well. [...]
Winter in Acadia
Posted in landscape on March 2, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I love being in incredibly beautiful places where it feels like I’m the only one present. This past weekend I found out that Acadia National Park in the winter more than satisfies this desire. The town of Bar Harbor itself feels post-apocalyptic. Shops and motels are boarded up; the handful of businesses that are open [...]
