The full Sugar Moon rising behind Camel’s Hump. Fiery sunsets lighting up Lake Champlain. Fall foliage engulfing Smugglers’ Notch. From behind his camera lens, photographer Adam Silverman has captured all these picturesque scenes and more.
Since a young age, Silverman was drawn to photography. He moved to Vermont in 2000 to work as a reporter, and later editor, at the Burlington Free Press. After 18 years in journalism, he became the public information officer for the Vermont State Police. Through it all, he has kept his camera close by.
About 11 years ago, Silverman started a website that features his striking fine-art scenic landscape photos of Vermont. He shares the images and drone footage on social media and has amassed more than 42,000 followers. Silverman loves reading everyone’s comments but said he’d be taking photos whether he had an audience or not.
In the latest episode of “Stuck in Vermont,” Seven Days senior multimedia producer Eva Sollberger met Silverman at the Burlington waterfront. They walked across frozen Lake Champlain to the Burlington Breakwater North Lighthouse, where Silverman photographed the sun setting behind the Adirondacks.
Music: Telecasted, “Golden Hour”
