  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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. 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. 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. When photographing I'm always looking for what I think of as an interaction of elements. In this case snow, sand, and water. After a fresh snowfall, which wrapped up just around dawn, the tide began advancing on the beach, forming the freshly fallen snow into lovely ribbons along the shore.
