Between 2006 and 2009, I had the pleasure of working in the vicinity of Edmands Park in Newton, MA.

The jaunts were always short but long enough to clear my head and to focus my writing. And sometimes I was able to carry along my camera and capture just a bit of the beauty that inspired me. With the help of some friends, I have compiled the images into a lovely little book that I hope you will find enjoyable. Available in softcover.

Spot Pond is centrally located in the Middlesex Fells. I look forward to returning in the spring for some contrasting images. Meanwhile, you can learn more about this lovely spot here.
