Patti and I reflected in the Vietnam Memorial...her husband served. The Lincoln Memorial and Renoir's Luncheon of the Boating Party at the Phillips...I love this painting.

Took a road trip with travel companion Patti at bottom...dressed just right to blend in as she took a peak at the scenery. That was in Harve de Grace. Second Stop DC WWII Memorial

Hot Air Balloon Festival July 2010

It was an early morning for us with Balloon take off at 6:30 am and an hour ride from home. It was the hottest day so far with a heat index of 110 expected. But it was well worth the early rise and motorcycle ride to watch this most amazing sight.

Rescue Me

We heard the airboat before seeing it. They were practicing and affording me some opportunities for shooting. Doesnt it look like they were posing?

river sunset

What a fantastic afternoon and evening on the river. Not too hot, not too cold, nice breeze, good friends, live free entertainment and a beautiful sunset. What more could a person ask for.

black and white

thought I might give black and white a try and I like it.

When my friend asked me to join her as she scouted for birds in preparation for the World Series of Birding I just said yes....
