Winter Night at the Farm
Taken in the winter of 1978-79 on a very cold night at my mother's house in West Bath.
Note on back of print: f/11 at 8 sec. I printed this during class in Boston around the same time. With my first Canon Ftb (received in 1971 and stolen in 1979). Brown stain on print due to tape residue.
The house is still there, now completely renovated and expanded. This was originally a salt water farm with frontage on both the New Meadows and Back Cove, running across Foster Point from water to water. The barn was lost to decay in the late 70's; a shed (visible to the left of the silhouette of the tree) remained until my mother sold it a few years later.
The tree shown in silhouette was one of several apple trees on the farm, typical of a general family farm in Maine.
Footnote: a beautiful property two doors down the road is now preserved forever by Maine Audubon, thanks to the very generous bequest of Millicent Hamilton. I have 2013 photos on Flickr - see the Maine set. :)
