The church pictured above is the kind of church one often sees as one drives through rural Maine. I do not know what its denomination is, but I doubt it is Congregationalist which has a somewhat more elaborate architectural style. Now Congregationalism is the most common denomination not only in Maine but in New England: Harvard, Yale, Bowdoin College in Maine, and a number of other institutions of higher learning in New England were founded by Congregationalist ministers. To me the church pictured above represents the simple life of so many people there, where the church is not only a place of worship but also the center of one's social life. The purity of the white, the unpretentious style, and the closeness to nature all suggest to me the values of the people who live in the state whose motto is "Life As It Should Be."
As a musical accompaniment I have chosen the well known Shaker hymn "Simple Gifts" The Shakers settled mainly in New York State, but there were also many communities throughout New England, including Maine.

I feel, overall, it’s simplicity I enjoy most in images. A few years ago I would probably have said light, what we call great light in fact. However, as much of the works I admire from others doesn’t always have that magical light, which no doubt lifts the spirits, it comes back to the simple composition. This, I find myself constantly seeking that simplicity myself.
I have been working on branding for my business and building a blog the last week , I have a whole new appreciation for everyones beautiful blogs!

Simplicity is beautiful. What are the positives and negatives in this photo? Tell me what you think!
I liked the way the sky was reflecting on the lake and used the reeds as a subject. Not much sun here in Florida lately as it seems to rain from 10 am to 9pm everyday, but it forced me to see different and be a bit more creative. I tried to remove the flare in lower left but wasnt successful since it overlapped a reed. I'll use a lens hood next time:)
I havent been active on Flickr much lately since discovering Google Plus. Great place for photographers with lots groups minus the P1/A5 and badges. I left a link below if you want to check it out.
