Longwood Gardens in Tabernacle
I went to the local farm market this week and asked permission to take some photos of their poinsettias and flocked trees. It was fun … like a Longwood Gardens experience but in Tabernacle! Here are a few of the results.

Nature Studies
At the end of last month 3 of my friends from the South Jersey Camera Club (Joanna, Terry, Jeanne) and I met in the dark and headed out to Whitesbog for sunrise. Our plan was to catch the Tundra Swans sleeping and make award winning photographs of them in the early morning light. As so [...]

Sunrise, Day Two
Sunrise on our 2nd morning in Cape May is pictured in the two photos below. Since the sky lacked cloud interest, I concentrated on the reflections in the sand and water. I enjoy shooting sunrise. Quiet anticipation and a sense of awe are constant emotional ingredients to the experience.

After Sunrise
After sunrise at the pier last Saturday (see previous post) we headed to Hereford Lighthouse in North Wildwood. What makes the sight unique is the flowers that surround the building, now past their prime. It was November after all, so I was surprised to find this pretty dahlia. On our way back to Cape May [...]

Day Tripper
A necessity for me each Fall is some kind of trip to look at the colorful foliage. Without a big trip planned this year, my husband and I ventured up to Harriman and Bear Mt. State Parks in NY earlier in the week. The park entrance was just 2 hours away … quite doable for [...]

And More HDR
OK! I gave up on a couple of the images I was struggling with and have moved on. Here is one I am pleased with. This was the last shot of the day. I saw the sun beaming through this door and set up my tripod. Of course that was when the heavens decided to [...]
