Fireplace

As the cold eases its way in, I find myself wishing I had daily access to one of these. : (

Random fungus

Some random fungus, captured at a park near Lake Carnegie in Princeton.

Railroad crossing

I've had a bit of a dry spell since late summer. Not really feeling any inspiration. So I forced myself to get out there and shoot. I'm glad I did, as I got some decent stuff. This is from one of my old standbys - the Delaware and Raritan Canal State Park. This is near the Millstone Bridge in Kingston.

Civil War experiment

Last weekend we visited a Civil War re-enactment near Lambertville, NJ. The turnout wasn't that great and it was pretty damn hot, but I did get some decent shots. I took the opportunity to try out a new technique for making one of the photos look "genuine." For comparison, I've included the shot in splendid color.

Butterfly Festival, Pt. 1

Taken today at the 6th annual Butterfly Festival, at the Stony Brook-Millstone Watershed.

Barn sunset

Horse scene

I hadn't planned to make this an artsy-fartsy shot, but the original image quality wasn't so hot. So using my trusty Photoshop plugins, I created this.

Another from the Flemington car show...

Hay is for Horses

Bleeding Hearts

No, not those kind of bleeding hearts - the flower kind. Specifically, a nice example found at the Frelinghuysen Arboretum back in May.

Happy Birthday, America!

Taken at the July 3rd fireworks display in Flemington. That little white blob is the moon.

Oceanside Dormers

Something a little on the artsy side - also taken at Cape Cod.

Cape Cod sunset

Taken from the shore of Cape Cod Bay in Eastham, if memory serves.

Coast Guard Station - Eastham, MA

The caption pretty much explains this one. It was taken in the middle of the day, hence the slightly washed-out look.

Happy Trails

A lonely little snail makes its way along the beach during sunset. Photo taken on a recent trip to Cape Cod.

Spotfin Butterflyfish

Yet another one taken at the Norwalk Aquarium...
