A Quiet Coastal Seascape

A tiny island on the Damariscotta River, in the small sleepy village of South Bristol, Maine, along the Maine Coast.

For well over a century, this area has been a vacation destination for people who have purchased homes and want to get away from the rat-race of Boston, New York, Connecticut and New Jersey.

Photography, to me, is more than just capturing an image; it is a way of seeing with heightened awareness, curiosity, and emotion.
