  • A hiker is silhouetted in an expansive, coastal landscape. This moment was unplanned. I was with the person in the photograph but did not expect them to be in this shot. When they appeared at the overlook I held my breath as they stood perfectly still for the four seconds needed to expose the image. Had they moved though I would have called 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. 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. 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.

  • This image required a very specific set of circumstances. It had to be cold enough to snow but not so cold that the pond would freeze over. There also had to be no wind, allowing for a perfect reflection. This shot took one year from conception to capture. Mendon Ponds County Park, National Natural Landmark, New York.

  • Acadia National Park, Mount Desert Island, Maine. These formations are familiar to anyone who wander along brooks and streams in cold environments. In years past I had photographed them with a long lens but, when it came to creating compelling images, I hadn't had much success. On this occasion, I decided to use a wide-angle lens which, to my surprise, succeeded in creating a more intimate view This is two images blended for focus.

  • 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.
