Walpole, New Hampshire


(click on image to enlarge)

Last stop on my tour of New Hampshire, visiting with Peter Roos, an excellent painter and photographer that I met on my Iceland trip last summer.  We got up early this morning and made a quick stop at Burdicks for the world’s best pan au chocolate and a cup of coffee before heading up the ridge to explore.  We happened to pass by Ken Burns’ house on the way up and just beyond that found a nice open field overlooking the Connecticut River valley below.  I especially like the contrast of the white barked birch tree to the other trees as an interesting foreground element to the view across the valley.  It was really a nice morning of exploring and shooting and I treasure the time that I got to spend with Peter.
