This gallery contains selected photographs from Paul's extended (2008-2021) late-autumn, Vermont documentary project called "Stick Season." The name refers to the leafless season between fall foliage and the first lasting snow of winter. Working statewide during this transitional period (generally the month of November), Paul documents natural and man-made landscapes, people, and cultural activities. Most recent photos appear first.

From My November Guest, by Robert Frost:

Not yesterday I learned to know

The love of bare November days

Before the coming of the snow,

But it were vain to tell her so,

And they are better for her praise.
