    I'm on a roll with 3 days in a row! ;) Today's forecast was for 8" of snow. By 5:30am, all the local schools cancelled classes. I did see 3 itty-bitty snowflakes. :beguiled: That was all we received. We did have a very colorful sky at sunset. I was going to upload the images but saw each one...

    A lackluster day for weather. Mostly overcast although the sun came out a couple times while I was still at home. Despite it being in the low 60's today, tonight and tomorrow is forecast for accumulating snow. :( I'm the one who gets to clean it up so I'm not thrilled. In general I've found...

    With the dreary rain, I really wasn't expecting to see anything today - that was until I drove to the Park and saw the fog. :) Editing fog photos was never my strength - but this time I went about the editing process much differently. Increasing contrast tends to wash out the fog. So less...

    Post your favorite/best shot for 2021

    I'd have to say this one is my favorite. It's rare to see deep, vibrant fall colors around here. Usually the colors are washed out. But we had rain that morning, and when leaves are wet, they tend to display more saturated colors. This day was a feast for the eyes because there were spectacular...

    I went back through photos taken on the most colorfully saturated day I've ever seen here. It rained earlier which tends to punch up the saturation of leaves.

    Merry Christmas!

    Today was overcast with rain part of the day. However, I did happen to see this sitting along the Delaware River so I circled back to take a photo. At least here in the USA, A Charlie Brown Christmas is a traditional holiday movie shown every year on TV.

    Just a cell phone photo - but I can't explain this. :beguiled: I fill these small paper Dixie Cups near to the top with water and freeze for Dixie Cup Ice Massage. It's used in physical therapy to help reduce inflammation. I've been freezing these since the late 1980's after my third knee...

    It's been a while since I've posted here. This afternoon I came across this holiday decoration hanging on a tree. It almost looks like there is snow on the ground, but there isn't. That's just a parking lot in the background. ;)

    Post your statue

    Today is a dreary day having rained this morning and overcast for the rest of this afternoon. So I didn't have my camera with me when I drove past this lawn statue. Honestly it gave me pause so I went home and grabbed my camera. The statue's brokenness can represent so many different things...

    Tethering a Black Rapid Strap

    Thanks for this, Bill. When reading the questions on B&H about the BR Tethering Strap, they asked how long it is. Before attaching, it's supposed to be 13". I am specifically looking for something short, but fortunately the BR Tether can have its length adjusted. No, I hadn't, but thank you...

    Tethering a Black Rapid Strap

    I really like using a Black Rapid Strap (the Cross Shot Breathe which is ambidextrous) when the camera/lens combo is heavy and needs to be attached to the tripod foot. But my biggest concern is if the strap comes loose or breaks at the carabiner. Has anyone used this Black Rapid tether strap...

    Post your favorite November 2021 shot

    After a rain shower earlier in the day, the leaves were a little wet. And when the sun comes out, that can intensify colors. This was by far the most amazing fall I've ever seen with color-saturated leaves. ikon D750, 24-120mm @55mm, aperture f/7.1, shutter 1/80", ISO 1250, photographed on...
