Through the Eye Photography by Bob Lane

Bob Lane resides in Augusta, Maine. He grew up in the shadows of Mt. Katahdin in Millinocket, Maine where he developed an appreciation for landscapes and nature.

Over the last twenty years Lane has compiled a portfolio of broad-based subject matter from coastal Maine, focusing on Monhegan Island, to the wilderness of the West Branch of the Penobscot River region, northwest of Baxter State Park.

Lane uses a straightforward approach to his work. He prefers to employ a minimum of gadgetry in terms of his equipment, using only haze and polarizing filters, and flash - fill on subject matter. Lane does all of his own matting and framing.

Primarily self-taught photographer, Lane has taken photography courses at the University of Maine in Augusta and attends frequent workshops throughout New England. Lane works to allow himself to feel what his subject matter is about and strives for a combination of composition, light, and color to capture that feeling on film. In addition to his position as a Program Planner and photographer for the Maine Department of Labor.

Lane is a licensed Master Maine Guide and provides day and overnight nature photography trips. He also does wedding photography.
