Sea Smoke, Belfast Harbor, Maine

Sea Smoke, Belfast Harbor, Maine

On a bitter cold morning in Belfast Harbor, Maine, when the temperature is minus 10-15 degrees, the warmer ocean water condenses and forms “sea smoke”. The water vapor disappears when the sun warms up the air sufficiently.

Ruby's Place

Ruby's Place“Ruby’s Place” is a black and white photograph of a window in an elderly Maine woman’s house. The weathered shingled siding is across from a small town cemetery—as can be seen in the reflection in the glass-and you are possibly wondering what the occupant of the house thinks as she looks out her window.

Technically I used a Mamiya 645, Kodak PX 125 film, shot at f8/125 sec.
