Fall Streambed

Stump Rings
After the park on Sunday, we visited an old mill — which had a fantastic hollow tree stump waiting to be photographed.

Water
This didn’t come out as nicely as I wanted, but I was hand-holding a slow lens. I like waterfalls enough that I’m posting it anyway!

Foggy Valley
Today was the 3rd Philadelphia Photobloggers meetup, at Ralph Stover State Park in Bucks County, PA. It rained all day, and everyone bailed out except for Robin Odland and me.…

Landscape 2
Finally — my favorite shot from last weekend! It’s only taken me all week to get the left half of this picture done. And then 15 minutes tonight to finish…

Lugubrious
Lugubrious, adj. Mournful, especially to an exaggerated or ludicrous degree. We spent the afternoon with some friends at the Batsto Village country living fair. There’s no fault but mine if…

Seussian
No, Dell did not come out and fix my laptop today. It’s been a week now, and that “24-hour” repair contract that we paid for is looking like more and…

Spring Tree
Apparently Dell’s “next day service” means “call us on Friday morning, we’ll think about possibly showing up in a couple of weeks.” The Dell repairman actually called late this afternoon…

Tree Planting
I’m a little light on material at the moment, so I’m posting something from my archives. Every spring Penn digs up the trees in this particular field (which line the…

Weeds
This row of sawn-off I-beams planted in the ground at the local train station has always fascinated me. This is probably the dozenth time I’ve tried to shoot them, and…

Irises
One of my shots from Bettyann’s flower shop in the Italian Market. Bettyann and her sister Peggy (at least I think it was her sister Peggy) were an absolute trip.…

Landscape
From my excursion to Valley Forge with Jake last weekend — I don’t think I’ve ever tried to take a landscape for the sake of landscape before, but here’s an…

Whatchamacallit

On Top of the World
I spent 15 minutes this morning trying to shoot dragonflies. Of course, on the way home I happened across one just sitting and posing for me — luckily I had…

Hyacinth
Another of my spring flowers shots. I really like the man-vs-nature stone building behind the flowers here.

Forsythia
Still clearing out archives (to free up hard drive space!), this is one of many flower-related shots that I took in the spring. They just came too fast and furiously,…

Last Flower
I’m almost fully over to the new laptop now, which accounts for my lateness on yesterday’s picture (that is, this one, which is for yesterday). Hopefully I’ll be able to…

Breakfast
Not a great day for picture taking, but I did manage to catch my lawn service in action this morning.

Texture
Been looking back through my gigs of pictures I can’t quite part with yet, picking out shots I wanted to post. Like this one, a great shot of Tookany Creek…
