ENJOY!

Self Portrait
This was taken on an unusually warm January Day. We decided to go out and take pictures at a local park. We were both wearing shorts and T-shirts. IN THE MIDDLE OF JANUARY!!!!

Geese at Burke Lake
There were lots of people out enjoying the warm weather. Even the birds had a chance to enjoy it.

Squirrel at Occaquan

Even the squirrels were confused. (Not that you could tell)

First Snow Fall
This is what it looked like the next weekend!

Point Pleasant Park in Winter
This is a typical January day in Nova Scotia

Peggy's Cove
I think the best time to shoot pictures at Peggy's Cove is during bad weather for many reasons. The biggest reason is that it keeps the number of tourists down, so you don't have a lot of people moving in and out of the picture you want to take.

The weather also adds to the photograph.
High winds and waves before or after an Atlantic storm can add some drama to the photo.
You just have to make sure that you aren't in the splash zone. (it only happened to me once)

Stone Bridge at Manassas National Battlefield
The Battle of Manassas (Bull Run) took place during the US Civil War (There were actually two battles a couple of years apart).

Colonial Williamsburg
This is a streetscape along the main street in the historic section of Williamsburg.

This is another photo taken in the historic section.
(It's been slightly doctored to remove a tag on the lamp post and a person in the background)

Fall Colours
This shot was taken along the trail leading to Economy Falls.

Sculpture
This is a sculpture which sits outside the National Air & Space Museum's Dulles Annex

Spring Trees
A nice sign of spring just outside our door.
