Master of black and white photography, Neal Parent captures the essence of coastal Maine. As Jane Day says in the introduction, Parent s photographs capture the rugged beauty of Maine s land and the independent spirit of its people. It s obvious in these images that Parent shoots with his heart as much as his eyes. The dramatic cover photo is only a hint of the subject matter found in the evocative images inside. Parent is as adept at creating a mood with his images of boats in coastal fog and people as he is with high drama at sea. Photographs are printed in double-black duotone on high-quality stock.
