Just a quick post this evening showing a bit of scenery from City Park. Post processed with Topaz Adjust.

Autumn Scenery

Snow Scenery

A couple more snowy images from yesterday morning.

Hidden Beauty

Nearly every time I take a camera out what I see surprises me. There is beauty all around. Just the simplest things can be an amazing capture. The following are images taken yesterday not too far from home. Places I have been many times, but was just able to see.

Friday Afternoon

My husband & I took an afternoon off to relax & decided to take the camera's for a ride. Does this view of the tree tops make you feel insignificant? Sure does me! Will share other images from James Buchanan State Park as time goes on.

1806 Old Log Church

My work yesterday took me to the Schellsburg, PA area. Nearby there is a historic log church built in 1806 & restored in the last few years. This church is still used from time to time. I can remember being inside several years ago & noted the pulpit is raised well above the log pews. It is surrounded by a large, very old cemetary. The church is open for viewing in the summer months. I think this scene lends itself well to black & white.

Home

As I traveled for my work today I stopped to photograph a scene that I have wanted to capture many times. To me, this view was "I'm home" for many years. Although I now live on the other side of the mountain, crossing the top & seeing this view always makes me feel good - I'm home!

More from yesterday's outing

A couple more photos from our little journey yesterday. The lake from the mountain top & some red berries to brighten things up.

Amazing Scenery

I rode along with my husband while he patroled a local state game lands. Of course my camera (& his) went too. We were on a mountain top not usually accessable to motor vehicles - although ATVs manage to trespass illegally. Those were the bad guys we were looking for today. We took a short hike to enjoy the scenery looking out over the valley & then enjoyed a view of the lake in the other direction. I have a dislike of manmade things-like telephone poles, wires, even roads in most instances, in my photos & had stated how unsual it was to not have to try to eliminate those kinds of things. Unfortunately, a few steps later, 2 water bottles & some other trash were lying near a rock. What a disappointment!! Hunter? Hiker? ATV rider? Photographer? While you enjoy what you do, please remember "leave only footprints". I am posting a couple photos of the view & the "trash" photos. As for you bad guys running ATVs, you made it today.........you may not be so lucky next time!
