Owner/Artist Dana Clemons, was born and raised in Bartlett, where his family has resided for generations. His love of nature developed at an early age, encouraged by his father who worked and hiked for the WMNF for over 25 years. His interest in photography developed out of his joy for the mountains, and the desire to share that beauty with others. His favorite place to be, is high on top of a mountain peak in the early hours of the morning, where the quiet is only broken by the song of a lone wood thrush, and the soft blow of the wind. He enjoys the rich varied colors of New England, and loves to combine them with water or snow to create some drama. He’s also been very fortunate to have documented many wonderful wildlife encounters.
