08.15 Lobster Trap Buoys, Pemaquid, Maine

On an overcast day without much contrast, these Lobster trap buoys, articulated by their florescent paint, seemed to glow in the flat light. As I moved around the assembly of traps and buoys, this view at the corner with buoys aimed in opposing directions provided a dynamic composition. This photo, printed on canvas at 30” x 60”, is on exhibit in the lobby of R. M. Davis Inc., 24 City Center in Portland, Maine, until September 21, 2015.
