On The Kennebec

I take photographs and make videos of the Kennebec and other sights in Central Maine, especially Hallowell. I try to focus on Nature, Art, and History.
Vaughan Stream beneath the Mill Bridge. This is from a past April, but it should be on point. #hallowell #maine #stream

I just posted a couple videos on art, and one on nature, so it's time for history vid. Don't worry I have more of the other two subjects. But Nature, Art, and History are the three pillars of my site so, here you go.

Here's Michel-Paul painting Pemaquid Point Lighthouse from a photo I took.

My friend Michel-Paul did a series of paintings on women gardening. Another one of my friend bought one (alas, not this one) because it was how she liked to think she looked working in her garden.

While art is not necessary to stay alive, it is an important part of being alive. This year there is going to be a vibrant art season on the Kennebec in the Gardiner-Hallowell-Augusta area. A big part of that is the going to be the Hallowell Artwalks waterstreethallowell.org/hallowell-ar...

Great Blue Herons are the Loons of the Kennebec. There are always a few around classing the joint up. #maine #greatblueheron #onthekennebec #kennebec #nature #dwellinbeauty

The theme of my work this year is Dwell In Beauty. To "dwell" is not only to reside somewhere but it is also to focus the mind and maintain attention on something. We can't put our heads in the sand but now and then we need to put our heads here and dwell in beauty.

Going to get started in earnest in the coming days highlighting events in Hallowell, Maine. Also going to be doing a countdown to summer starting Feb 15th with lots of Maine Moment photos and videos. The question is should I create a separate account for the Hallowell posts?

Hallowell Then & Now. B&W photo of the granite wharf in Hallowell in the early 20th century. The site is now a boat launch as shown in the color photo from 2023. #hallowell #maine #onthekennebec #kennebec #history
