The transition from summer to fall happens rapidly here in Down East Maine. One day the warmth of the summer sun can be felt until late in the evening, and then the next, darkness is arriving at 7:00. Fall brings a sense of calm and solitude that is lost in the hectic nature of summer. I always anxiously await the arrival of these cool mornings, warm afternoons and brisk evenings. Agh, Fall is now no longer just in the air, but solidly in place.
I am not sure what is in store for me in 2017, but I do know, this little pup will continue to be a huge part of my life. We spent January 2nd out on the beach, watching the waves crash and chasing a brightly colored little ball. I think there is much to be learned from the joy and jest for life that Rue brings to everything that she does.
So here is to 2017 and the life of a Border Collie. May the year bring you all much peace and happiness and all the love you desire.

We met up in the chilly winter air of Portland Maine for some beer tasting and an opportunity to explore the city with our cameras. Learning to see at night is especially challenging given the extremes of light and dark. For me, the Leica Monochrome simply excels at this environment. The camera, with its high ISO capabilities and its beautiful rendition of tones, simply eats up the night light and spits out stunning images. I love this camera more and more with each passing moment.
Attached are some of my favorites from our evening walk. I will be scheduling more walks as the year progresses so please stay tuned. Part social, part teaching, all Fun.
Downeast winter requires folks to get together whenever they can
A fleeting moment in time, the dark of winter -- frigid, and moody.
