Those are BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for sharing.

As you drive north on 153 into Eaton, you'll pass a church on your right that is gorgeous. It is the classic small New England church with steeple, and you can see all the way through the old windows to the lovely lake behind it. In the fall, when it's surrounded by colorful leaves, it's spectacular.

I can't find a link online, but there is an old meeting house in Eaton that I've always loved. If you drove south on 153 and took the first left after Purity Springs Resort, you'll head up a dirt road to the top of a mountain. The meeting house will be on your right part way up. Gorgeous views. I think they hold events there occasionally, and in August there's an annual fund-raising lunch there. Everyone eats outside and there's an art fair and bake sale. Classic Americana.

It's not a church, but you could take some timeless shots at the Remick Museum in Tamworth:

Enjoy and let us see how they come out!

That is a very scenic area, but watch out for the frost heaves in the winter on the roads in that area!

Thanks for the pictures Dave. They are beautiful. I found them by accident. I definately have to make the ride over that way this spring or fall. Haven't been in years. Nice scoot too. Springs coming, right?

You have a tremendous talent for this. Those photographs are beyond professional quality because they capture the emotion of the scene.

The images with the Harley in the foreground would be improved by removing the motorcycle. The eye is captured by the bike and the picture becomes - just another bike in a beautiful place. Things like cycles, cars and babes are best photographed in front of a neutral background like a grass covered hillside or a brick wall that are just a background.

In any case, very good work.

Thanks much for your compliments. this is what we live for, the wife and I. As to the bike, I can understand your thinking but I don't think we will be removing it from photos anytime soon. She is a 2000 Honda Shadow Sabre and is our sanity machine.
