T

he beauty of the Vermont landscape is easy to understand, but hard to capture. So when a photographer renders it successfully—when the lone barn’s timeless strength becomes fully realized, when the immensity of the clouds SZIV XLI QSYRXEMRXSTW FIGSQIW TEPTEFPI ERH XLI VIǼIGXMSR of a sunset on a forgotten creek becomes mesmeric—that is when the beauty is no longer evanescent, but eternalized.

This is what Jim Westphalen is after.

From an early age, Westphalen had a passion for photography. “I’ve been making pictures for as long as I can remember,” he said in a recent interview. “There are many old photos of me at seven or eight years old [MXL E PMXXPI TPEWXMG ǻPQ GEQIVE WXVETTIHc EVSYRH Q] RIGO ƹ Even in his youth, his lens was aimed at the splendor of Vermont. “I had a great childhood growing up in suburban Long Island, but even then I was drawn to what I perceived as this mystique and timelessness of New England, and Vermont in particular.”

Westphalen started getting into photography seriously in the early ‘80s while working in a commercial photo lab. Here, he was able to gain invaluable experience learning about the back end of the photographic process. As Westphalen continued his career as a photographer, he became renowned for his unique process that gives his photographs a TEMRXIVP] IǺIGX [MXLSYX XLIQ PSWMRK XLIMV WLEVT VIEPMWQ Westphalen’s process begins before he has even grabbed his camera. ;LIR LI ǻRHW E ZMI[ LI [SYPH PMOI XS TLSXSKVETL ERH LI LEW EPVIEH] IRZMWMSRIH [LEX LI [ERXW LMW ǻREP TVMRX XS PSSO PMOI 8LYW LI [EMXW JSV the right light, weather, and time of day he needs to create his intended print before he actually photographs the view.

“That meshes very well with what we do.”

The space features craftsmanship that’s bound to catch the eyes of bar-goers. Custom-made yellow chairs and wooden benches on wheels sit atop LEVH[SSH ǼSSVMRK & PEVKI [MRHS[ EPPS[W ZMWMXSVW to peer into the distillery. The walls are decorated with woodwork, and the dappled U-shaped bar top is made entirely out of zinc.

“It came out awesome because we could sit and have beers after work in the space and talk with the owners about each little thing every single day,” Rossiter said. .R MXW ǻREPM^IH WXEXI XLI XIEQƶW HIWMKR [SVO at Stonecutter Spirits drew the attention of new clients. Since its completion, Imhotep has designed and built two other bars — one for Otter Creek Brewing and one in Lake Placid. They also fashioned a Russian-style banya (or bathhouse) for a client on Lake Dunmore.

Now, the market for Imhotep’s style of interior design and construction has materialized. The LSVWI FEVR LSYWI GSQFMREXMSR MW XLI XIEQƶW ǻJXL project, and there are more on the horizon.

“We’re pretty lucky,” Rossiter said. “We did XSRIGYXXIV ǻVWX ERH . XLMRO XLEX WIRX YW SR E PMXXPI bit of a path. The better it went, the more people were like, ‘Just do your thing,’ and that’s been awesome. I feel like (the projects) are getting better and better, the more freedom we have.”

The projects have kept the team busy, but their market is expanding outwards, and they’re expecting to adjust the business to keep up with far-reaching demands.

“It inevitably puts us farther and farther away,” Rossiter said. “We were lucky, doing two in 2MHHPIFYV] XLI ǻVWX ]IEV [LMGL MW TVSFEFP] something we will never do again, just statistically speaking. But we’ve been interested in pushing out.” Ƹ8LI LEVH TEVX MW FIMRK JVSQ &HHMWSR (SYRX] MXƶW

“This is what I’ve come back to,” he said. This is what I choose to do after all those things.”

McKenna is described as the company dad.

“I think, for me personally, I have a little selfdiagnosed OCD,” he said. “I think that’s what I bring — planning and making sure things are where they need to be, when they need to be there.”

Rossiter could be considered the company’s creative mind. He has inherited the attitude of a furniture designer he worked for in Chicago, who believed that any unusual project was worth tackling.

“Over the years, he built this reputation that if you had something obscure, something that you couldn’t build, you came to him and he would do it,” he said. “I just fell in love with that part of it, the fact that every day we were doing something totally wild and bizarre.”

Rossiter works to push the company, and its clients, into new territory.

FOOD ROASTED PEACHES WITH WHIPPED CREAM, ANGOSTURA BITTERS AND POPPY SEEDS Submitted by Julia Clancy, a private chef who lives in Middlebury.

Serves 6

ROASTED PEACHES: 6 just-ripe peaches 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 2 tbsp maple syrup 1 tsp salt

WHIPPED CREAM: 2 pints heavy cream, cold Ÿ cup maple syrup 2 tsp Angostura aromatic bitters ½ tsp salt

SEPTEMBER Â SPECIAL:

BOURBON+BURGERS Every  Tuesday

We’ve  teamed  up  with  Makers  Mark  and  Jim  Beam  to  bring  you  delicious  specialty  cocktails  for  Burger  Night  during  the  month  of  September.  Stop  in  and  discover  some  new  favorites...

TO FINISH: Learn more about Julia’s

1 tbsp poppy seeds

cooking at www.juliarclancy.com.

PREPARATION: Preheat oven to 400 F. Slice the peaches around the middle, running your knife from stem to bottom so you have two peach halves. Remove the pits by loosening the tip of the pit with a paring knife or small spoon and gently prying it upwards.

Toss the peach halves with the extra virgin olive oil, maple syrup and salt. Spread on a baking sheet, face up, and roast for 8 minutes.

While the peaches roast, make your whipped cream. Pour the cold heavy cream into a wide, metal mixing bowl with the

maple syrup, Angostura bitters and salt.

Whip, by hand or with an electric mixer, until the cream holds soft peaks. For soft peaks, an upturned whisk should hold a peak of whipped cream that bows over slightly at the top.

Taste the whipped cream. If it tastes like it needs another hit of bitters, add the bitters a couple drops at a time — a little goes along way.

He then shares the results for everyone to see on his website: http://pss.uvm.edu/ ppp/aaswp.html So, if you are an avid gardener, a visit to the Burlington Waterfront Garden would be a wonderful addition to your own summer plans. With a high percentage of annuals in the mix it is always extremely colorful, especially towards the end of the season as the plants mature. It is also your chance to be your own horticultural judge: decide which varieties are thriving; ask yourself which colors you like best; and look for plants that look good when paired together.

And of course, since we gardeners are always thinking ahead and making plans for the future, take note of your favorites and plan to try them in your own garden in 2017.

Our roof is a difficult one due to our post-­and-­ beam construction, but nevertheless, the crew was friendly, informative and just great people. Then even in the cloud cover, we began immediately to generate electricity! Furthermore (and most importantly for others deciding to install solar), the price was fair, competitive and honest.
