Misty Morning on the Bridge
I went out a little early this morning to capture some photos from the Fort Street Bridge while the river was still foggy. The fog over the river gave the old power plant a ghostly appearance — fitting, given that it’s slated to be torn down to make way for the Caribou Riverfront Redevelopment project.…

Fences and Flowers and Dog
Went for another walk with Jeannie to the solar panel farm just down the road again. Took a bunch of pictures — again. Not to get all gear-head on you, but all the photos were taken with my Canon R50 with 50mm lens. I present to you…the Caribou skyline. This bit of grass was formed…

We’re getting quite a bit of smoke from Canadian wildfires today. Here are some shots I took with my drone of the evening sky over Caribou.

Caribou in 50mm
Today I decided to wander around town for a bit and take some photos with my 50mm prime lens. I have several lenses but only one prime lens. All the rest are zoom lenses of varying focal lengths — everything from 10mm to 250mm. The prime lens offers a much sharper image at the expense…

Walking Pics
Took another walk down the road with Jeannie the other day. Here are a few snapshots from that walk. Jeannie loves to pounce on things she finds in the shrubs at the base of the fence surrounding the solar panels.

Recent Skies
While browsing my phone camera roll recently, I noticed that I’ve been taking some interesting photos of the sky. The featured image above is from Portage Lake on the Fourth of July weekend. Kim looked like a wizard summoning weather from the north (with her phone, as modern wizards do). The rest of these are…

Walkin’ ‘Round ‘Bou
Honestly I had never heard anyone call this town “‘Bou” until Kim posted it on Facebook yesterday. It’s kind of a cute name for this town. Anyway, Kim and I went for a walk with Jeannie around Caribou yesterday. We started off at the park near Collins Pond (is it still called a “pond” since…

Some Morning Photos
Just trying to keep up the daily(ish) photo habit, guys. Here are a few photos I took the other morning. Jeannie typically wakes me up between 5:30 and 6:00 each morning to go outside and pee and sniff around. I decided to follow her lead and sniff around for things to photograph (and probably pee…

Storm Over the Aroostook River
Here’s a quick video I took of a rain storm that passed over the Aroostook River a couple of days ago. This was taken with an Insta360 X5 camera. I just love the way the hyperlapse feature of the Insta360 Studio software can help showcase the beauty of a storm in a condensed form.
