Kennebunk, Maine, USA, January 2026 \u2014 I went out yesterday to explore with my camera, what I call a \u201cphotoprowl\u201d, down along the Bridle Path where I have not been since the whole pacemaker saga. We have had enough rain and warmish days now so that the snowpack is completely gone, but it is still January light, low, and horizontal even in early afternoon. The sun broke through as I got nearer to the ocean, and though the clouds were still massive, they only added drama to the winter sky. This is a view I have photographed many times in all seasons. This happens to be a panorama\u20265 wide-angle shots stitched together by a very clever app on my iPad. It is close to the full 180-degree field of view of the human eye, and way wider than our normal 60-degree field of active attention\u2026so it bends both spatial reality and our brains. But it captures a bit of the waiting, resting, beauty of the January day, when the earth is still asleep but maybe dreaming so avidly of spring that it has kicked the covers off. To really \u201csee\u201d the image, you will have to turn your phone sideways\u2026or view it on as large a screen as you have. Sony a6700. Sigma 16-300 at 24mm x 5. Auto with Landscape scene mode. Processed in Photomator and assembled in Bimostitch Pro. <\/p>\n
