Acadia, Maine
Simplicity in nature is so powerful. I was shooting the fall colors in Acadia National Park, Maine, and wanted something special. On a hike the previous day, I noticed this delicate composition of reeds and lilies in a shallow pond, but was unable to shoot as the wind was strong. I hiked back in, and the stillness of the late afternoon had completely transformed the shot. The reeds reflected perfectly, and the multi-colored lilies added a special element to their tranquil moment. The silence of the day was broken only by my shutter. This image captured my feelings of our delicate, fragile world in a simplistic abstract.

The lighting on this capture is just gorgeous — those soft reflections really make the pond feel alive without stealing focus from the lilies. It’s already brightening up my living room wall, and I keep catching myself staring at it during coffee breaks.

The composition is so clean it feels like a quiet exhale—those lilies almost float against the pond’s surface. I hung it in my hallway and catch myself stopping to look at it every time I pass, it’s that calming. The way the fall colors are muted in the background really makes the subject pop withou

The morning light in this print catches the pond lilies just the way I remember them from my own trip up the coast, and the fall colors around the edges feel almost like a memory. I've had it hanging above my desk for a week now and keep stopping to look at it.
