This is a well know boat, the "Wilma Lee" that I photographed as it sailed out of Kent Narrows in Maryland to deliver a load of oyster "Spat" or young oysters used to seed new beds.
I am a professional photographer specializing in lighthouse, maritime, nature and urban photography. I've been published in many national books and magazines, and am the publisher and co-publisher of numerous lighthouse and wildlife posters. I have led a number of tours for the Smithsonian Institution and produced multimedia slide shows for them and others.

I have wall art appropriate for both the wholesale and retail levels. I welcome any and...
