On Saturday, June 29, 2013, a new photography exhibit entitled ?Chesapeake Tribute: People and Places? opened in the Van Lennep Auditorium of the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum (CBMM) in St. Michaels, Maryland. The show continues through September and is free for CBMM members or with museum admission.

Featuring the work of area photographers Carlton Harbaugh, Bea Poulin, and Joanne Riley, the exhibit includes images that represent an era the photographers believe is fast disappearing from the Chesapeake landscape and seascape. The tribute includes photographs of aging Chesapeake Bay Architecture, Chesapeake Bay Built Waterman Boats, and the Celebration of a Charter Boat Captain?s life.

Carlton Harbaugh spent the first twelve years of his life in Havre de Grace, Maryland, along the Chesapeake Bay on a Military Installation of the 29th Div. It was here in Havre De Grace that Carlton became interested in Photography with his parents? Argus 75 twin lens reflex (120 film) camera, a basic 60?s camera with fixed lens that was the norm. This is where he saw his first Naval Ship with the crew of Sailors in their Tropical Whites on the deck for their morning quarters and inspection; this was later to influence his decision to join the U.S. Navy. Also, the morning of the ship departing Havre de Grace, to his surprise, he saw a car driving down the city boat ramp directly into the Chesapeake Bay, his first and only Aqua Car (German Car) that could drive on the highway but also had a propeller and was seaworthy. He then relocated to Harbaugh Valley in Sabillasville, Maryland, where his family and ancestors settled from Germany in the 1730s. In 1974, after graduating from Catoctin High School, he served in the U.S. Navy, working in Photographic Intelligence and serving as original Crew aboard the USS Nimitz CVN-68, and later with Reconn Squadrons and Special Forces, supporting many missions, including Bosnia.

In 1986, he relocated to Southern Maryland, along the Chesapeake Bay while still on active duty.

Carlton saw a way of life disappearing and made it his mission to photograph and capture the life of Watermen and a way of life along the Chesapeake Bay. Carlton retired from the Navy in 1997, and relocated back to Sabillasville in 2010. That was also the year that Carlton?s mother was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer.

Harbaugh is a member of The Royal Photographic Society, the National Press Photographers Association, a founding member of the Muddy Creek Artists Guild, Member of the Northwestern Frederick County Civic Association, life member of the UDT-SEAL Association, life member of the Disabled American Veterans Association, and a Veterans of the Vietnam War Life Member.

In November 2012, while watching MPTV, Carlton saw a special on the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum, where the highlight was a Photographic Exhibition of the Chesapeake Bay. He contacted the Museum Curators and set up an appointment to meet with them about an idea for a Photographic Exhibition of his Bay-related photographs and invited two of his photographer friends to join in the Exhibition with their own Chesapeake Bay-related Photographs. Their work was reviewed and accepted, and the Exhibit opened on June 29, 2013, and runs until September 29, 2013.

The two photographers, who are also part of the show, are Bea Poulin, founding President of Muddy Creek Artists Guide of Shady Side Maryland, whose photographs include Chesapeake Bay architecture of old farmhouses, abandoned churches, tobacco barns, and more.

Also, Joanne Riley of Churchton, Maryland, a self-taught photographer whose subjects include boat captains, children, charter boats, models, and more. Joanne Riley is also founding member of Muddy Creek Artist Guild.

The exhibit is open daily, from 9:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. For more information, visit www.cbmm.org or call 410-745-2916.
