Framing in Bath

This was taken from the window in a covered bridge in Bath, New Hampshire.  The general store next door is one of the oldest is not the oldest in the USA.  Very much worth a visit - wonderful smoked meats and cheeses!

Flying Vermont

Up, up and away - oh what fun this was!  My first experience in such a small plane flying over Vermont and getting a bird's eye view.  The picture taking was not good until I asked permission to open the window (you have to be careful it doesn't slam against the wing), and got my lens out there.  My arms were sore from holding on to the camera and lens, but it was worth it to learn about taking aerial photos.

Nevada Tree


This tree caught my attention.  I was out in the Spring Mountain Recreational Area (Mt. Charleston) outside Las Vegas.  Mt. Charleston was the only peak that still had a bit of snow on it so that's where I headed - about 70 miles north of Vegas and then  25 miles west or close to it.  It was nice to see the desert below and trees above me, very scenic.

Spring Flowers in Texas


This was the best wildflower season we've had in a long time - taken on the way home from the Salt Lick Bar-b-Que, the best in Texas!

Moose Flies

It is hard to see the flies around his nose and neck, but they are there.  You have to wear lots of repellant to keep the black flies off you! This was taken at one of the many ponds close to Kokadjo, Maine.  These photos are quite tricky to take with a dipping moose and a moving canoe.  I wish I could do this everyday.

Moosehead Lake

Looking at this makes me long for summer and moose country.  I can't wait to see what mooses present themselves this year.  Texas has looked rather dreary the past few months - it is either cold or blazing HOT.
