Portfolio: Eoin Vincent
Recently, over a steaming cup of coffee brewed with his own freshly-roasted beans, we presented Gloucester photographer Eoin Vincent with a challenge: catalog each and every one of the 24 Babson Boulders scattered around Dogtown for our new Blogtown Common channel. Photographed from mid-April to mid-June, the images depict the dramatic change of season over that brief period of Cape Ann spring. They also show the skill of a passionate artist.
While the boulders date back to the late 1920s, their timeless messages remain prophetic almost 100 years later. We could all benefit from a stroll through the Dogtown woods, pausing to reflect on these massive glacial stones chiseled with such simple, but powerful, words: Truth, Courage, and, especially, Kindness. –The Editors
