Maine’s Acadia National Park is stunningly beautiful any time of year, but the first half of June provides some extra flair when the lupines bloom. I used my macro lens to get this intimate shot of a bee visiting one of the flowers, and I was especially intrigued by the ball of pollen that the bee had collected on its leg. Prints Available.

There is no place that I feel more alive, more connected to what is important, than the wilderness. Whether an icy mountain summit, a misty forest, or a rocky coastline, the wild places of the world feel like home to me.

Add a car to the equation, and the result for me is the feeling of absolute freedom, where the possibilities are limited only by my imagination and willpower. View more posts
