The family beagles, Peanut Butter & Sparky.

Trouble is a microscopic Chinese Crested Dog.

Close-up, Drake’s Brook, Waterville Valley, NH.

As usual with water the camera and the eye see different; these brilliant, scintillating lights were not evident until I viewed the images on the computer.

Inside a coffeeshop in New Paltz, NY. Since it was about 7:30AM and the snoozing patrons were with instruments, I assume they are from a local band. One imagines they were up late the night before performing to a grateful crowd.

Sometimes I think the excessive light washing in from the window is a flaw, but then again, I sometimes like the effect.

A beautiful, mist encompased morning just outside New Paltz, NY, on route 299. Looking into the sun shining through the mist was much clearer than the camera could capture (I adjusted the contast of this photo ever so slightly in attempt to fix it).

The title is “Missed Shot” because just a few seconds later the bicyclists—four of them—zoomed by is a blur of bright color….

This is a water fountain at the Grey Towers National Historical Site in Milford, PA.

I like these images of stark difference. In this case the soft, almost inviting red leaf against the harsh, painful looking stones. This photo was taken on the walkway to the Grey Towers National Historical Site in Milford, PA.

I would have liked to clean some of the debris from the stones to get a really clean area around the leaf… but I never modify things I photograph.
