About Me
- John Theberge
- I live in Lewiston, Maine and have for most of my life. I've always had an interest in nature; as a kid I read books by Edwin Way Teal, Rachael Carson, among others, and I used to love studying the Golden Nature Guides. When I got into photography it was natural for me to take pictures of the natural world. A few years ago I got into kayaking and that allowed me to get to places I would never be able to by hiking and of course this gives me more photography oppurtunities. I realized years ago you don't have to travel to exotic locations to get good photographs. I have to admit I'm lucky to be living in a beautiful state with a lot of natural diversity, but I've taken good pictures right in my own back yard and neighborhood.

Those are so interesting birds with their gloomy red eyes and the striking pattern of the plumage. The low POV makes it even more a standout.

They are so awesome John! I need a kayak!!!
Have a great weekend!!
They are so peaceful looking - I can almost hear that wonderful sound.
There is nothing better and more etheral than hearing the loons calling as evening falls. They are the most beautiful birds. I've had one or two grace my pond as they fly through. Wish they would stay!
Very nice! I really love looking at loons.
John, I saw your post on the Maine loon cam and came to visit your site. You are an extremely talented photographer!!! Thank you for sharing your gift with us.

Stunning shot! I envy that you have so many loons there. I mean that in the nicest way. ;-)
Wow. Why do they remind me of a chocolate sundae and the eyes are like the cherries? I guess its the colors. Great shot!
great shot John, do you ever get to see the babies when your out on the water?
