Georges Pond, Franklin, Maine; July 10, 2011 (Beachcombing series No.39)

Freshwater!

We visited friends who have a camp out on Georges Pond in Franklin, and spent a lovely afternoon splashing and swimming and kayaking. I've become obsessed with photographing water this year.

 I've been trying to capture the weight of it, and the tension between the surface and the volume below it. The camera doesn't want to see both - it wants to focus on either the lake bottom or the surface reflections. I want to show both.

 

Working on it!
