Lake Willoughby, Autumn Dawn
Francois de Melogue
2025 | Archival pigment print on metallic lustre fine art paper | 25x17
From above, Willoughby Gap cuts through the Northeast Kingdom like a clean fracture in old stone. Mount Pisgah and Mount Hor rise on either side, their faces scarred by glacial work that ended ten thousand years ago and left this particular geometry behind. At dawn the lake below holds the pale color of the sky exactly, and the shadows thrown by the cliffs are long and cold, reaching across the water before the sun has cleared the ridgeline. The air at this elevation in October has a specific quality — it is not just cold but clarifying, the kind that makes individual stones on the cliff face legible from a distance.
The forest below the cliffs is in full color: rust and amber and a deep, wet ochre, broken at intervals by the dark columns of fir and spruce that hold their green through the season. No wind reaches the lake at this hour. The surface does not move. The reflection of the sky in the water is a shade cooler, a shade more still than the sky itself, and the contrast between the warm canopy and that cool stillness below is the photograph's quiet center.
Quality is about longevity. I use a high-resolution Canon R5 Mark II to capture every detail of the Vermont landscape. Each piece is printed in-studio using professional-grade Canon Pro-1100 and Epson P9000 systems with archival pigment inks on natural cotton paper to create a print that will last for generations.
Print only, with a 1/4 inch wide white bordering for convenient matting and (or) framing.
Unmatted (unmounted) / unframed.

Shot on a Canon EOS R5 Mark II. Printed on a Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-1100 using museum-grade archival pigment inks on metallic lustre fine art paper.
