  • Acadia National Park, Mount Desert Island, Maine. When I found this design I immediately thought of Picasso. Further reflection on the image lead me to the idea of escape (which can be seen both literally and figuratively in the image). All of these ideas combined made me think of my own internal battles with confidence, anxiety, and depression.

  • Acadia National Park, Mount Desert Island, Maine. There is a thin line that divides my mood swings. On one side I'm happy, productive, and confident. On the other side, I slip into darkness, drenched with feelings of uselessness and frustration. It can come at any moment, without warning, triggered by the most trivial thing. I feel like I'm at sea with no navigational tools and with no idea when the next storm will arrive.

  • Acadia National Park, Mount Desert Island, Maine. To show how massive the eddy was I composed it with a wide-angle lens, positioning the cascade that fed it in the background making it appear small and inconsequential compared to the eddy, despite its importance to this phenomenon. This is two images blended for sharpness. The eddy was photographed at f/22 to extend the shutter speed allowing the maximum amount of movement in the slowly spinning pool. The background was photographed at f/11 for sharpness.

  • Acadia National Park, Mount Desert Island, Maine. I always wanted an image of a deer on Sand Beach in Acadia National Park. I knew it was possible, I'd found their tracks in the sand many times. What I never expected was that I'd have that opportunity with a buck with a full, mature set of antlers. The deer held almost perfectly still for just a few moments allowing me to use a long exposure that blurred the ocean behind it, adding interest and an unexpected element to the image.

  • Acadia National Park, Mount Desert Island, Maine. Barred owlets are fairly easy to find if you know where to begin. The group this pair belong to nest in the same stretch of forest every year, which is where I begin. Then, I find them by listening for their distinct, high-pitched screech; a call to let their parents know where they are and, more importantly, that they are hungry! Once they’ve fledged, they hang out low to the ground (sometimes on the ground!) and are active during daylight hours which makes them easy to photograph… as far as wildlife goes.

  • Signs of Acadia's varied geologic history can be found everywhere along the coast or any place with bare, open rock. This intrusion formed after a crack in the bedrock filled with magma. The surf and tides have since smoothed it out. Acadia National Park, Mount Desert Island, Maine.

  • Sand Beach is one of just a few cold water, shell-based sand beaches in the world. Typically, shells completely dissolve in cold water, but Old Soaker, the island on the horizon of this image, creates a current that collects tiny particles of shell that haven’t had the chance to fully dissolve and diverts them into the glacially carved cove, Sand Beach, where they become trapped. Acadia National Park, Mount Desert Island, Maine. Three consecutive frames were focus stacked to create this single image in order to achieve sharpness from foreground to background.

  • Acadia National Park, Mount Desert Island, Maine. After photographing the coastal landscape for a while I noticed these unique patterns of bubbles on the surface of the water. The challenge was finding the right settings that would give me enough depth of field (I was above the water looking down but still shooting across it zoomed to over 200mm) while also freezing the movement of the water and without adding too much digital noise. I ended up at 1/1000 sec at f/11, ISO 3200

  • Acadia National Park, Mount Desert Island, Maine. The winter that I photographed this scene was a series temperature fluctuations. Temperatures would rise, rain would fall, snow would melt, low areas would flood, and then the temp would drop again, freezing it all. This happened over and over again. I was exploring an area of forest that had flooded and froze a number of times when I found this leaf, floating in a thin pool of water between two layers of ice.

  • Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee & North Carolina. There were three cubs in this tree. At first, I was trying to make an image that included all three but wasn't having much success. This section of the tree caught my eye, it had a pleasant shape and was clear of obstructions. Rather than trying to force an image that included the three cubs I concentrated on this branch and waited for one of the young bears to climb across it. My patience paid off. A serendipitous moment happened when the bear's pose echoed for a second the shape of the branches. The image, at that point, became about shape and natural design, which the black and white treatment aids.www.jkputnamphotography.com
