This iconically quaint barbershop was located in a very small town in Minnesota. I had been to the town many times as it was "homebase" to a summer cabin I grew up with as a kid, but had never noticed the shop nestled back under the trees. I became aware of, and studied the scene, as I awaited an unrelated event. Some of the best subjects for photographs are completely serendipitous and never posed or contrived. (20 years later: This shop has been razed and replaced by a large retirement complex)
On this page is
one of hundreds of Earth Image Photography, Nature Photography images created
over more than thirty years. There are human interest photographs, humorous
photographs, photojournalism photography, great autumn leaf scenes and closeups
of autumn leaves. Time exposure photography is a large part of the collection
along with nature photography closeups. Wildflower images and snowy winter scenes
and soothing photographs, they're all here. Books are on this site too: We Boiled
Up a Sheet takes place near the duxburynorthpool, and My Summer Office is an
entertaining recounting of summers on the Wisconsin River inside and around
Sonbeam's Secret Channel. Enjoy the wealth of imagery to be found on the
Earth
Image Nature Photography site, both in photography and prose.
