Tram's African Chicken Soup

I stayed at school late trying to get things organized for rest of the week and the start of next week. Then I ran home and let the dog in the house and then headed to The Tram for photo club. Luckily, The Tram sells delicious food and coffee.

Deer Crossing Creek

I took some shots down this creek then crossed the bridge and took a few on the other side. Then, as I turned around and planned on heading back to my car I looked the other way and here is what I saw! I was so excited. Of course I wished I had my longer lens on but I'm still pleased with how this one turned out. It was the first shot and the best of the bunch. I only cropped it a small amount. Funny how seeing this and getting the shot kept me pumped all day. I love my commute to work.

Fog on the Fields

It was a beautiful drive to work this morning. Enough fog to make everything look mystical but not foggy enough to make driving dangerous. I had to make a few stops for some pictures. Not thrilled with the results but posting a few anyway.

Clematis after the Rain

This is my favorite shot of the day. The only problem is that with such great DOF you can see the siding of the garage in the corner. Tomorrow I'll try a little photoshop and see if I can fix that.

Rainy Sunset


Rainy Sunset, originally uploaded by NedraI.

It was raining this evening and the north sky was dark gray but the western sky was a beautiful orange and cast a wonderful glow on the burning bush as well as other plants in the garden. I tried to capture the beauty but it just didn't work tonight. It's also hard to capture the sky from my house due to all the wires.

Summer is Fading Away

It was a beautiful summer like day to I took advantage of the sunshine and warm temps and headed out to the garden to take some macro pictures. I never made it to the back garden but just as well...the mosquitoes were bad out front so they would have been much worse out back.

Fort Herkimer Church

I've been away from interacting on flickr and adding to my blog for many months. I'm going to try hard to make it a habit again. I miss the inspiration and interaction.

It was a beautiful day so I took off with my camera not sure of where I was heading. Along the way I saw a sign saying there was a living history event at this church this weekend. So I headed in that direction. There had been a civil war encampment but by the time I got there it was finished and most of it was packed up. So I took a few pictures of the church and discovered a bike/walking path and headed down the trail along the Mohawk River to enjoy the summer like day.
