Maine-made wine and brew spread cheer in holiday season By Dan Marois Feature Writer If you want to consider giving w ine or beer as a holiday gift, Za k k Ma her believes the choice starts with a good story. “Even before someone tastes something for the first time, t hey respond to t he stor y (behind the beverage),” said Maher, who with his wife, Emmy Andersson, operate Square Root Natural Foods on Route 26 in Poland, Maine. “People like to know where the item is produced, where the ingredients are grown or know something about how it is made.”

[also] tell them what goes on behind the scenes to make the finished product.” W hen it comes to Mainem ade w i ne s a nd bre w s, Maher said that the market has exploded. He finds that summer visitors like to seek out a Ma i ne w i ne w hen visiting the state. His bottle racks are often filled with w ines t hat include Maine staples: blueberries, honey, and maple syrup. “Me ad i s popu la r,” s a id Ma her, a bra nd made i n Por t la nd. “We’ve stocked Blacksmit hs (a w iner y in South Casco).”

That’s exact ly why Ma her holds monthly wine tastings at his store.

And if you are looking for Ma i ne made cra f t beers, there’s never a shortage of choices.

“People can taste the wines and get used to the names,” sa id Ma her, “but we ca n

Capture holiday memories with these simple, professional tips By Jackie Rybeck Feature Writer T he hol idays a re a l l about fa m i ly a nd tradition. And there aren’t many traditions more widespread than taking family photos during the holidays. There are no better ways to remember the holidays than having great photos to look at and share with relatives and friends, but most of us don’t have access to expensive cameras or photographic studios. With that in mind, we turned to Poland-based photographer Gini Haines whose profession is specializing in capturing great memories for generations to come. Let’s start at the beginning: the camera.

A candid of Sawyer Nelson with the family dog. settings to learn. Exposure refers to the light that is let into the camera. An overexposed image will be bright and washed out; an underexposed image will be dark and murky.

“Owning a camera is the easy part,” Haines said. “Using it well takes information and practice. Modern digital cameras are amazing tools for capturing beautiful images. In order to use your camera at its full capacity you need to be familiar with its functions. The hard part is that it means reading and re-reading the manual.

Metering mode is what determines how the camera measures the light it sees in the scene you are aiming your camera at and how it uses that light to determine the best exposure.

Just remember a cheaper camera with the correct settings can take a better picture than an expensive camera on the wrong settings. Experiment with each setting to see exactly what it does.”

White Balance keeps colors looking the same in different types of lighting.

Auto-focus mode involves speed: single or continuous. Single is best for landscapes and Continuous is best for capturing action.

Aperture, also called f/stop, controls the amount of light that reaches the image sensor. It controls the depth of field.

Have fun taking photos of the kids during the holidays; let the kids get wrapped up in tinsel and lights. Shutter speed is another way of controlling the amount of light that reaches the image sensor. A fast shutter speed stops action and a long shutter speed allows you to create motion blur if that is the effect you want. “Once you have learned the functions,” said the professional, “practice, practice, practice.” Now comes the fun part!

Jackie Rybeck photos

Planning and being prepared is the most important step. “It will help with cooperation and relaxation,” explained Haines. “If you are having group photos, know where you will be taking them. Know what your background will be, and who will sit where. Don’t be afraid to get up close and have everyone sit close together.”

A dog pile can always get a natural smile out of children. Although a group photo is nice, Haines said to try the un-staged approach.

Volunteerism: The gift of your time By T. S. Chamberland Feature Writer The stores, malls, and streets become busier as the holiday season gets closer. People are ready to start shopping for those perfect gifts, planning holiday gatherings and meals. If you have friends and family nearby, you’re likely to have lots to do no matter the holiday you celebrate. Maybe in addition to all the hoopla, you’re looking for some way to give back, some way to give this season beyond traditional gifts and gatherings. There are people in our communities who may not have the option of sharing merriment and cheer with those they love, and there are local organizations that are short staffed and in desperate need of extra hands at this time of year. While it would be great to donate gifts, both material and monetary, to organizations who distribute to those in need, there is a bigger gift that’s well worth giving: your time. Volunteering provides much-needed assistance to non-profit organizations such as local churches, soup kitchens, shelters, and senior services, and it provides something that beautifully wrapped presents alone cannot: the gift of human contact and interaction. The reasons for volunteering are as varied as the causes that benefit from the donation of time. For some volunteers, like Tom Gesner, of Buckfield, it was as simple as saying yes when a friend asked him to volunteer with her. “I’ve served Thanksgiving dinner at Hope Haven Gospel Mission a few times,” said Gesner. G esner sa id t hat he “t horoug h ly enjoyed” h is t i me volunteering, and added, “I had some nice conversations with some of the people I served.” Feeling connected to another person, even if just for an hour,

can often be the highlight of somebody’s day. When we give of our time, we show others that they have value. Time is, after all, our most precious commodity. Kelly Green-Chartier, of Turner, lost her mother to brain cancer 16 years ago. That experience is what Green-Chartier credits for her start in volunteering five years ago. She didn’t think she was doing much at first, until she began to run into people she’d spent time with at The Dempsey Center in Lewiston. “Giving back is so important,” said Green-Chartier, who gives foot scrubs and massages to cancer patients. “I have run into former patients; they hug and thank me, and tell me just how much I did for them when, honestly, all I did was be there to listen to their story.” One of the benefits of volunteering isn’t always immediately considered, since it takes having given of yourself to fully appreciate the effect, but any volunteer is likely to admit how wonderful they feel freely doing something for others. “Volunteering has changed me for the better. Giving of yourself fills your soul with love, and hope,” admitted Green-Chartier. Marcy Kennison, wife and mother of two from Poland, has also found volunteering to have multiple benefits.

time to the service of your community. Gesner suggested contacting the charity or organization you are interested in to find out their needs. “Also, consider volunteering during a non holiday when there may be less of an abundance of volunteers.” No matter when you choose to volunteer, and regardless of where that time is spent, there is a definite need that only the gifts of time and compassion can fill. “With so many people experiencing hard times, we are seeing people from children to elders giving their time to let others know that they are not alone, and that people with good hearts are there for them,” Kenison said. Green-Chartier agreed, “Sadly, so many of us are affected by illness and loss, and it feels good to give back. Also, with the economic struggles we have all experienced, this is something you can do that costs nothing, but is so fulfilling for all of those involved.” Looking to give the gift of your time to a worthy charitable organization? Here’s a short list of area charities that benefit from volunteers, as well as a couple of web sites that list many others.

Kenison said giving of her time not only helps her congregation ra ise t he f u nds it needs, but prov ides people w it h opportunities to build friendships and fosters good will.

• Hope Haven Gospel Mission, Lewiston -- 207-783-6086

“I have been a member of the United Methodist Church of Auburn for 17 years, and giving my time to this loving church makes me feel so happy,” Kenison said. “The benefits to me involve being part of this wonderful community of people who are all there for one another, and the profits help keep our church going, so we can give our time and talents to God and our community.”

How to help new parents make the holidays special By MetroCreative

B

ringing a baby home cha nges a person's life. Babies bring great joy but also some confusion into a household, especially as the new parents adapt in their first few weeks or months as mom and dad. Babies tend to draw attention away from their folks, whose needs may be lost in the shuffle. As baby's first holiday season approaches, the youngster's parents and extended family of ten attempt to ma ke t he ex per ience a s memorable as possible. But family and friends of new parents also can take steps to lighten new parents' holiday burdens by of fer i ng some t houg ht f u l holiday gifts that can provide support and love for newly minted moms and dads. • Time: New parents typically

are short on time. There's little time to shop, eat and sleep. Friends and family of new parents can give the gift of time this holiday season. Offer your services as a babysitter so new parents can enjoy some alone time, or simply lend a hand with household chores so the new mom and dad can rela x instead of work while their bundle of joy is napping. • Memories: The first hours and days of having a new child are filled with opportunities to capture every moment. Gone are the days when film must be developed and tangible photos must be stored in photo albums. Digital technolog y mea ns some photos never make it to hard copies. But even if photos rarely find their way into frames, preserving early memories is essential. C om p u t e r s c a n f a i l a n d camera cards can break. In s uc h i n s t a nc e s, pr e c iou s

• F o o d : N e w p a r e n t s' nourishment may come from any package that's easily torn open with their teeth while tending to a cr y ing infant. Me a l s , s n a c k s a n d f o o d baskets make great gifts that keep parents fed and happy. Consider membersh ips to fruit of the month clubs or call the new parents' favorite restaurant and send them a meal. • Pa mpering : Somet i mes new parents just need some pa mper i ng, whet her it's a shopping excursion, a visit to a hair dresser, an appointment w it h a masseuse, or something as simple as a long,

Grandchildren bake holiday goodies at the Clarke house By Deborah Carroll Feature Writer Debbie Clarke, of Wales, was 5 years old when she started cooking. “I always watched my mother,” she said, helping when she was old enough. “There was always something home baked when we came home from school.” Her grandmother, who raised n i ne ch i ld ren i nclud i ng C l a r k e ’s m o t h e r , w a s "famous" for making bread and pies.

The hottest apps and accessories to make the holidays special If you’re looking to give a smart holiday gift keep in mind that 58 percent of American adults have a smartphone and 42 percent own a tablet, according to the Pew Internet & American Life Project. Although we may get bogged down by the frenzy that often accompanies the socalled “Most Wonderful Time of the Year,” one way to simplify the season for the gift-giver and receiver alike is to give apps and accessories for mobile devices. “As over half of adults have a smartphone, giving the gift of helpful accessories for the gamer, music lover or fitness fanatic in your life is an easy way to make holiday wishes come true,” said Matt Kasper, director of sa les in New England. “Whether a friend or family is looking for the latest and greatest, we have all the season must-haves including the Samsung Galaxy S5, iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, and iPad Air. Their efficiency relies on the power of the 4G LTE network.” Users may even consider their smartphones the tech equivalent of the Swiss Army knife, and the proof is in the

You need to stock up on these when you can because they won’t be around for long.” W hen g i f t g iv i ng, Ma her sug gested ex pa nd i ng t he possibilities beyond simply buying a bottle of wine or a selection of craft beers. “You can always make gift baskets which can include the bottle along with other Ma ine-made foods ; ja ms, jel lies or chocolate,” sa id Maher, whose store also has a selection of pottery from local artisans including goblets, mugs, plates and bowls. “We have wine gift bags, but you can always consider a locally crafted item to go along with the gift.”

“When we stock our shelves, w e choos e w h at w e a re interested in, not something that we like, but something that we might want to try,” sa id Ma her. “I have t ried everything on the shelf here.”

from page 7 “Shoot moments, not poses. Have t he oldest go noseto-nose with the youngest or have a child look into a Christmas ball that ref lects their face.” There are so many amazing Ch r ist ma s moment s t hat don't happen C h r i st m a s morning and don't involve opening presents. “W hat about t he n ig ht before when the kids place the cookies and milk out for Santa? Or reading a book in bed with Christmas pajamas. Have your camera on you du r i ng t he hol idays, a nd there will probably be many specia l occasions or even unique and fleeting moments to capture with your camera.” Other tips: Try to coordinate clothing. They don’t have to match, just don’t have bold stripes or plaids make the photo too busy. If taking photos of little ones, get down to their level. Let them have fun. Have them do a dog pile or get tangled up in the Christmas tree lights ... even let them stick their finger in the frosting.

“Sugar cookies, because they’re good.” Sydney agreed, the best thing about sugar cookies is “eating them!”

Keri Nelson taking pictures of sons Sawyer, Tucker and Hunter. Don’t have a photo w it h something to distract seeing the faces, such as a pile of crumpled wrapping paper, or a trash can ... for some reason, the first thing that people see is the one thing that’s out of place. Fill your frame by getting up close or using your zoom feature. Us e pr op s . A g i a nt b ox wrapped with a little one’s head poppi ng out. L ay Christmas lights and balls on the floor around the children. Or maybe use the front door with a wreath or steps with poinsettias for group photos instead of the couch. Chances are your photo will be of a better quality if you take a photo when they least ex pect it. Don’t cou nt to three, just tell them to look at the camera and snap the photo. Even tell a quick joke;

“Aubrey loves peanut butter,” said her mom, Shelby, who had joined us in the kitchen – perhaps drawn by the smell of freshly baked cookies. “She has a really adventurous pallet.” For example, an Aubrey favorite is pecan pie made by Clarke’s husband, Peter. Sydney, on the other hand is a bit timid. “It’s got to be visually appealing,” said Clarke. “If it’s not, it doesn’t pass her lips.”

Jackie Rybeck photos

Don't be afraid to get up close. From left, Tucker, Hunter and Sawyer Nelson. there won’t be forced smiles, or the three seconds for a child to make a face. Last, but not least, using the rule of thirds will make your photos more i nterest i ng. Use imag ina r y lines, t wo horizontal and two vertical creating a tic-tac-toe grid. The ma in subject of your photo should never fall in the middle box. One last important tip: “Never let your photo taking get in the way of enjoying ‘your’ holiday.”

S wiss T ime

For Clarke, it’s all about “spending time together and making new memories.” With mouths full of cookie, Aubrey and Shelby nodded in agreement. Clarke’s hope is that as they get older, the things they’ve learned from her will travel with them through their lives, and that the knowledge and passion for sharing both the products and the processes that they’ve learned in her kitchen will get passed along Debbie Clarke, of Wales, watches as her with favorite family recipes. “I hope that granddaughters show off a plate of cookies the trio they’ll teach it to their own kids someday.” made together.

Christmas morning. “I personally know that play can positively impact the life of a child. When I was young, it was a basketball I received on Christmas morning that empowered me to dream that I could someday become a basketball star,” said O’Neal. “Grow ing up, my parents always impressed upon me the importance of giving back to those in need, and that even the small gift of a toy could make a big difference in someone’s life – like it did in mine. My partnership with Toys“R”Us to collect toys and raise funds for Toys for Tots puts a smile on my face and gives me a sense of great pride, and this season, I’m calling on all my little elves to help #PlayItFor ward to make a Shaq-sized difference in kids’ lives!” To y s “ R ” U s w i l l t r i p l e it s cha r itable g i f t i ng on Tuesday, Dec. 2, now known as #GivingTuesday, a social media movement designed to kick off the season of giving.
