Seagulls Flying over the
Sunset Bay

Photo of the Day 214/366

This photo was taken about a year ago on a vacation to northern Maine. That area is my "happy place" as many of my friends know. I got very lucky with this photo. I managed a sunset sky, the peaceful water in the bay, and two seagulls just drifting across my field of view. I'll be back there in less than eight weeks and I can't wait.

Arched Hallway at Valley Forge

Thursday Architecture

This photo was taken inside a chapel on the grounds of the Valley Forge National Historic site. The chapel we visited is not as popular as other areas of the historic site, but it held gothic architectural details like this hallway that made it so interesting for me as a photographer. I enjoyed the visit, the history, and these sights.

    Photo of the Day 307/365  Autumn Colors on Display by the Creek This photo was taken last weekend on our mini-vacation. We were on our way home and happened to find a pull-off - in the rain - and I took some photos by this creek. The colors just seemed to pop in the damp drizzly weather but the camera couldn't quite capture the bright colors. I didn't want to over-edit it but this is close to what I experienced that moment.

Red Tinged Clouds over the Trees Photo of the Day 345/366 I took the photo last week on the way home. It was a wonderful sunset sky and I couldn't pass up taking a number of shots while it was available. These clouds with the red edges from the setting sun were a wonderful sight over these trees just behind the rolling field in the foreground. A nice evening sky for sure.

Tracks into the Sunset Photo of the Day 342/366 This photo was taken last evening on the way home from work. I took a number of photos and could not quite get the sun peeking through  the clouds. This is the closest I got. I love the colors in the sky and the reflections in the railroad tracks. I've taken this scene before, but it always makes me think of life moving on and on, rolling into the sunset of life - as I get older, those thoughts become more frequent.
