The Photographer's Guide to the Maine Coast

Where to Find Perfect Shots and
How to Take them

David Middleton and Bruce Morrison

From dramatic rocky beaches and austere lighthouses to quiet harbors filled with lobster boats, tourists flock from around the world to photograph Maine's coastline. This book, written by two veteran photographers, tells you exactly where to go and how to go about shooting these “picture- perfect” places.
Directions to each site (including detailed maps), seasonal timing, places to eat and stay, and photographic tips accompany each site location, in addition to appendices featuring the authors' favorite places to photograph and tips on digital photography. Whether you want to capture close-up images of seaside flora and fauna or an old lobster boat to create your own postcard, this book will take you where you need to go.
David Middleton is the author of several books including The Nature of Vermont and The Nature of America. He conducts outdoor photography workshops across the country. He lives in Danby, Vermont. Bruce Morrison is a longtime and widely published photographer who has traveled extensively across the country. Bruce specializes in wildlife photography and is a popular speaker on environmental issues. Bruce lives in Chatham, New Jersey.
