What great photos of graduation, I really love the movement you captured in the hat toss. I just moved to the Brunswick area last month and must say that Bowdoin is a beautiful campus, it must be great working those events. I'll be checking in now and then to see what new things you post. It's always great to discover fellow photographers in the area. Best, Christopher Hi Michele,

I live in northern Maine and no matter what people say you dont see them that often. They sure are a sight when you do. I'm going to take a trip to moosehead lake in a couple of weeks I hope I have better luck than you when you went. It will be beautiful either way! Have a great day Karen I love the moose pictures!!!

]]> Comment on Meet Dan Cashman: this guy is going places. by Mike Borja http://www.michelestapleton.com/blog/maine-photographer/dan-cashman/comment-page-1/#comment-148 Mike Borja Thu, 10 Sep 2009 03:26:26 +0000 http://www.michelestapleton.com/blog/?p=724#comment-148 Congratulations Danny! It's been far too long since we've hung out, but throughout high school we shared some great times. I remember I was there during Dan's interview for his late night talk show, down in the Bear's Den in the University of Maine. Seems like so long ago now. Both Danny and I were the foundation of a couple different bands, him on bass guitar and me on drums. We kept good time, and now looking back, many years, and many bands later, I can't say as though I've been able to fall into a groove with a rhythm section as well as our own. We definitely jived well, haha. Congratulations Danny! It’s been far too long since we’ve hung out, but throughout high school we shared some great times.

She woke me up saying "you have to see this." The sad thing is that this cabin has been removed. It needed repairs, but because it was built on top of rocks and actually hung over the edge of Daicey Pond, repair efforts were deemed an environmental threat to the pond. Too bad, the location is breathtaking. I went to Baxter to climb Mount Katahdin with my good friend Alicia Anstead, a very talented writer. She woke me up saying “you have to see this.”

This sample is so beautiful. I wouldn't be awake enough at that time of morning to capture a meaningful photo, much less one as pristine and gorgeous as this one. I know your 20x20 project must have been simply amazing to see. :) Oh wow, Michele! This sample is so beautiful.

We love working for Bowdoin, it's a gorgeous campus, they have super students who are very much at ease with us taking photos and they give us access to fun places from which to take photos--like helping Angie up onto the roof of Hubbard Tower. This year the light could not have been better during commencement. The soft cloud cover made all the harsh shadows go away! Thanks Sonia!
