Would you buy your own park, build 51 miles of roads to tour it complete with 16 unique hand carved stone bridges, and then donate it to the National Park Service so that it could be enjoyed by everyone in the world? I couldn’t possibly fathom having that kind of wealth nor the mental illness that it would require to attain it. So, no. My winning lottery ticket dreams are more like hiring a crack team of special forces operatives to hunt down those computer hacker nerds and s

As I said before, “…Timing is everything..” And some would have said that my timing was bad for the vast amounts of white birch within Acadia. However, when I rolled up onto the edge of this bog and found the naked white birch providing a dramatic back drop for the explosion of maple color, I think that my timing couldn’t have been any better. My photographic style as such has really taken a turn for the modern/minimalist. You can certainly see Mr. Pollock’s influence here, o

I rolled into Kennebunkport around noon to a massive amount of people and even more shops.

I popped out of the car and there they were. 3 dinghies lined up perfectly. I took out my newly minted trusty iphone and snapped a

I reached into the top pocket of my camera bag. The pocket where I always keep my head lamp. Guys like me are always waiting for the last drop of light and it generally leaves you in the middle of nowhere with nothing but a few stars to guide you on your way back home. Alas, I also have a 12 year old son who for some reason or another is always, “borrowing” a head lamp. Therefore, you can conclude that I was on a cliff, in pitch black, with the sun rising in 35 minutes (give

People say that timing is everything. I prefer to point out the caveat that there is no amount of timing that can overcome a bad place, and worse company. Acadia National Park is certainly a place, and I always enjoy having those closest to me with me, but the timing here, made for an experience not easily matched. The great almanac said we would be a week late, but Acadia is really known for its coast, and it is exceptional, probably one of the prettiest in the world (more o
