Dandelions (Taraxacum officinale)

I went fishing a few weeks ago.  I went to one of my regular fishing spots.  This was the view from over my shoulder as I was fishing.

Dandelions are generally little more than a lawn nuiscaence.   This day they were simply beautifull.

Snow Goose

Well, I haven’t been able to get out much lately to take pictures. So last Sunday we decided to leave a little early to drive around and see what might catch our eye. We didn’t have that much luck. It turned out to be a cloudy, gloomy, wet day. It actually started raining. The geese above were in the Irondequoit bay area. We were actually on our way back when we spotted them and decided to stop to snap some shots.

Also, I created this blog layout using 2 of the pictures from my collection.

Let me know what you think.

Hilton Head Island

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007

In December 2006, my wife’s family and our family went to Hilton Head Island for a week. There were several enjoyable things about going to Hilton Head during December such as the weather was not unbearably hot, it was off season so there were not too many people there and there were no lines trying to get into a restaurant or onto a tour boat. However, we did find that several places that would have normally been open during season were closed because it was off season. But that didn’t stop us from getting some much needed rest and relaxation. Especially in a spectacular place such as Hilton Head Island. Every day we woke up early just to see the sun rise. There is no better sunrise than that over a beach bungalow with some palm trees and the ocean waves rolling in…it was breathe taking. We went on a dolphin watch and actually caught some photos of dolphins. Believe me, that was not an easy task. Every day we combed the beach in search of the best sea shells and in hunt for the infamous sharks tooth. And, we actually found them. It was the best time ever.

The Grand Canyon Of The East

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007

What an amazing site! You wouldn’t believe it unless you actually saw it with you own eyes. And each turn my wife and I took, the better the view got. It truly was amazing. One end of the the Letchworth Park, also known as the Grand Canyon of the East, in New York State, is all cliffs and stunning sites. And as if that was enough, the other end of the park is beautifully covered with multiple waterfalls. The day we were there, we happened to see not one but three weddings taking place and caught a picture of the waterfalls while a wedding party was taking photos by the falls as well. Not a bad place for wedding photos! My wife and I enjoyed the photos that we were able to take while we were there but better yet we camped and we were able to go white water rafting and had a blast.

This is my first of many posts to my new blog. I hope you enjoy what you see here. The purpose of this blog is primarily to let you know what I am snapping pictures of.

Photography has been a hobby of mine for several years. I am currently doing a lot with natural beauty. (Wildlife and scenery.)

Here is a picture I took this afternoon.

This is a low res version. I will get a better one on-line when I have some more time.
