This gallery contains photographs from a self-published book entitled Faces of Acadia and sold in my gallery, Mason Gallery, in Bar Harbor, Maine.
While walking down a trail taking in the beauty of nature, you stop suddenly. A face on the side of a cliff is looking at you. It turns out to be a collection of random natural features that just happen to be in the proper relationship to remarkably resemble a face. These photographs are from a journey that began with such an experience.Photography2013 -
These photographs were part of a Baker Island group show in 2010 with painters Kathy Hall and Ivan Rasmussen.
Baker Island is about 4 miles from Mount Desert Island and is part of the Cranberry Isles. The island was home to the first lighthouse in the region which was built in 1826. The current structure completely replaced the original and was built in 1855.Photography2013 -
This gallery contains photographs from a self-published book entitled Nature's Mirrors and sold in my gallery, Mason Gallery, in Bar Harbor, Maine.
If you are able to spend much time in Acadia National Park you will observe the power of nature to challenge and inspire. Just as the terrain gives even the best athlete a good workout, the sensory and spiritual power of Acadia pull us toward deep reflection, pondering the awesomeness of the natural world and our place in it.
The natural mirrors highlighted in this work are more than simply instances of water reflecting light. They are Nature’s Mirrors.Photography2013
