Many a visual artist will rave about the quality of early morning light. The surest way to become a believer? Go out and work in it yourself! The added reward (if out in the country) is the stillness of that time of day, occasionally broken by a dog barking across the valley, or geese in flight, or the low of a barnyard animal. The singular beauty of this light lasted about 10 minutes, before it shifted away to neutral tones.

Reputed to be one of the most photogenic waterfalls in VT, it’s also one of the most accessible – only a stone’s throw from Route 100. The perspective here is from the top of a large backhoe that was temporarily in the area.

These two vehicles moving in tandem across the field make quick work of standing rows of corn. The chopped corn will typically be placed in a silo, where it will ferment and eventually be fed to livestock.

As autumn peaks in VT, so too does the sense of mystery across the landscape. The light is receding, and a quietness emerges, even as the colors seek their greatest brilliance. We begin moving back into ourselves, readying for the winter ahead, as does the land.

This one, a scan from 120mm format slide film, goes back a ways. The mood strikes me as a balanced one, all in all: the high cloud cover is neither light nor dark, and the nature of a ferry ride is that you’re neither here nor there.

I found myself looking at this image a long time. It could very well be called Design.

The Marginal Way is a 1.5 mile path along the spectacular Ogunquit shoreline, and this is the view as you approach the north end. I’m not sure that late summer day could have been any more beautiful.

Lexy is one of three Haflingers that share the pastures with a number of other horses and a burro. It’s always nice to come around the corner and see where they’re all at and what they’re up to. Most of the time they’re grazing, sometimes at the fence waiting for the evening rations, occasionally just galloping around the fields, and, every once in awhile, someone will be on the ground kicking the air. In this shot, she seems to be in a peaceful state of relaxation (do horses meditate?); I think short of sleeping as we were just interacting a minute before.
