Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park draws hundreds of people each morning. They all watch the horizon for the sunrise. I looked at what the sun was lighting as it rose and this is one of those images.
The next few weeks will have a photo a day from my recent fall colors trip to New England. This image of ferns with birth trees was made during a shoot in Acadia National Park. We were walking back to the car and I walked past this and after a few steps I turned around and composed and shot this image. It would have been so easy to walk by, but I saw the image of just the ferns and not the whole scene.
Just about two weeks ago I was working with Phase One doing a workshop in Bar Harbor, ME. Bar Harbor is a beautiful location and sit just outside Acadia National Park. The workshop group did an early morning shoot. The shoot took place on a pond and the group seemed to be glued to one spot. I decided to take a walk and in doing so I found this old tree on the shore of the pond. I messed around with the angles and finally lying down on the rock I got the angle as seen in this image. Once I looked at it on the computer I worked it a bit balancing out exposures of foreground and background to achieve the image shown here.
