A 2008 storm coated trees and power lines with thick ice. After it passed, I sat beneath bent, ice-coated willow branches and captured a drop striking a pool directly in front of the lens as the shutter clicked.

In winter, along this coast, storm winds blow sand, burying snowfall. Patches of surface cracks and dimpled hummocks form as the snow beneath alternately melts and freezes.

Water drains from beneath Lincoln Beach’s bluffs, forming meandering streams that cross the wide sand beach to reach the Pacific Ocean’s shore. At low tide, ripples in the sand are left by waves and currents.

Prince Edward Island’s coast marks the southernmost extent of seasonal sea ice in North America. Thirty years ago, I watched the ice oscillate as gentle swells rolled beneath it.

The new day’s first rays illuminated the canyon rim. In the pooled water above Imperial Rapids, reflections from the canyon walls highlighted mud-coated stones.

Ten thousand years ago, a glacier left behind the sand and rocks that formed New England’s outermost shoreline. This erratic appeared as a softly glowing wonder arisen from the marsh.

I hiked to the overlook at the top of the falls. The night before, snow had fallen. Later in the morning, the sun broke through, melting the snow, leaving a race at the base of the falls.

The elevated view east provides a broad panorama of the Gulf of Maine. Schoodic Island serves as a nesting sanctuary for eagles and seabirds. On an autumn evening, the ocean lies almost still.

Waves generated across thousands of miles of the Pacific crash onto the shore in a steady rhythm of breaking swells, forming seafoam where the fog-bound coast meets a radiantly blue ocean and sky.

Canyon Del Muerto features pictographs from different periods of indigenous habitation. The canyon is part of a national monument that preserves a record of over 5,000 years of occupancy from the Ancestral Puebloans to the Navajo.
