Thomas Hill Standpipe - Spring


Robin and I went back to the Standpipe last night, which was open for the Spring. I was able to take the exact same placement as the fall photo that I took there last year, and this is it. I need to retake the Winter one again next year (it doesn't match the other two), and will hopefully take the Summer one in July, when they're open again.
In talking with Robin, I had a great idea for how to compose these shots. Instead of doing a horizontal frame showcasing the four seasons in Maine (all from the same shot), I might blow the four up to an 8x10, cut them into strips, and then piece them together. It's a take on what my Photography teacher suggested and my original idea. His suggestion was to do four shots of the horizon, in a wide angle idea, so that it's a wide shot, spreading out over four seasons. It would be very panoramic with four shots, but I think I like my idea better.
Hopefully it works!

Beautiful photography. i love that you were there last year and went back. I did something similar. my dad was stationed in Europe while I was in kindergarten, and my parents had pictures of my brother and I on little trips in Holland, germany and other countries. In the late 80's I went back as an adult and had pictures taken of me in the same places. thanks for stopping by my blog and your advice. I am saving you so I can continue to see your beautiful photography. thanks, chris
