Half the Fun

Of getting to your destination, is the journey. Along the way to Canaan Valley I ran across a stream and huge icicles hanging from the rocks. The stream was shallow enough I could step out onto some of the exposed rocks and get this shot.

It was 16 degrees here, and 14 in the Valley, but with little to no wind it felt warmer.

Not that much warmer mind you, maybe 20 degrees or so, but I'll take what I can get :-)

Thanksgiving

So I had a chance to get away for a bit, and landed in West Virginia for some photography, snow and waterfalls. Lots of wonderful old buildings to photograph and this barnhouse was top of the list (also happened to be nearby where I was staying, but that totally didn't enter in to the equation!)

Afternoon sun, perfect blue sky and one shot was all I needed to nail it.

Despite the frigid weather, the D1x never even hiccuped. Love that camera!

Trip

The area I live in was blessed with some early warmth, and having been cooped up this winter, I was itching to travel.

One of the places I went was a dying town, where I snapped this image. Slight modification to the original image, I adjusted the colour to more closely match that of Fuji's fantastic film, the Velvia 50.

My cast comes off none too soon so I can do something more than static images.
