The subjects of Mr. Milne's photographs include animals, rural scenes, snow, and friends. His portraiture is a strength of the collection, showing his subjects in strong black and white tones, usually in a personal setting. The collection also includes over fifty photographs of a trip or trips that Mr. Milne took to the southern United States and/or the Bahamas. Mr. Milne's documentation of Vermont life is very generalized. The collection includes photographs of Vermont farmsteads, ponds and mountains; men fishing and hunting; and people playing golf, riding horses, and snow shoeing. All of the photographs in the collection are black and white; most of the photographs in the collection are in a large format: 11 x 14 or 8 x 10.
