This image captures some of the reasons why I enjoy living in Maine. An extensive architectural history with great examples of both historic and modern styles, combined with a dramatic and bold landscape make for an inexhaustible source of interesting material to photograph. This classic white clapboard house, sited on a dramatic shoreline speaks for itself why folks have been building great architecture here since the 1600’s.
