Fire on the River, Carrabassett River, Kingfield, Maine. A feature of this weekend’s celebration of Kingfield Days. #kingfieldmaine #carrabassettriver #kingfielddays #fireontheriver #orcuttphotography.com John Orcutt October 21, 2021 Instagram You Might Also Like Historic Pillsbury Grain Elevator, between Felt and Ashton, Idaho. Like distant ships on the horizon, grain elevators in the American West appear in the wide-open landscape long before reaching them. Happening upon these magnificent structures, one thinks about the engineering, the transport of materials, the labor and perseverance that it must have taken to construct them.Frank Gohlke, master of the Texas landscape, expressed his feelings about these extraordinary buildings with these few sentences: “I was frustrated by the discrepancy between the ordinariness of the facts surrounding the grain elevators and the intensity of my emotional responses to the objects themselves. …. The dignity of grain elevators, the precision, intelligence and grace of their formal language, their majestic presence within the landscape all seem to confirm the faith that, given the right circumstances, we will make visible the best that is within us”. #orcuttphotography #bestofthegemstate #historicidahograinelevators February 16, 2022 Sunset reflected on our bedroom wall this evening. A heavy cloud cover with just a sliver of clearing on the horizon at sunset created this artistic composition. It lasted for a few minutes! #tetonvalleyidaho #driggsidaho #bestofthegemstate #idahosunsets May 30, 2023 Rolling Fatties at dusk in Kingfield, Maine last September. A study of gable roof shapes in this small village in Western Maine. #kingfieldmaine #rollingfatties #westernmaine #villagearchitecture August 23, 2023
