Fun in Port Jervis

Tyler Boss takes on Peter's whiskers

Tristate Sunset

The right moment

Peter and I went to visit a favorite spot and arrived just in time for a spectacular sunset. Under the I-84 bridge, there is a perfect view of our tristate area -- NY (on the left), NJ (in the distance) and PA (on the right). We can drive through 3 states just to pick up pizza and it's still hot when we get home!

Unexpected Beauty

Under Route 84...

...there is a beautiful view of the Delaware River

Peter, Paul and I went photographing this evening and visited a relatively new, favorite spot. Mostly I went for a walk while they photographed, but I did take a few photos of my own -- here are two I really liked. Click here, to see photos I posted from this location in the spring.

Sunrise Over the Delaware

Sunrise 6:26

Sunrise 6:44

Peter and I have been exploring a new location along the Delaware -- close to home so we get to sleep in a little. On this morning, a couple of weeks ago, we were lucky to catch an amazing sunrise and setting moon. The light changes quickly and it did not disappoint.

Sorry It's been a while since I've posted. My computer was choking on all of my photos.

Flowers!

Yes, the myrtle is in bloom

I went for a walk yesterday and couldn't believe my eyes -- flowers!

Another Take

... on unexpected beauty

Lisa and I went for a walk on Saturday. The last few photos I've posted are from that afternoon. We were both struck by the sunlight coming through the curtained windows of this abandoned restaurant. Lisa posted her photo a few days ago with all it's soft and beautiful moodiness and here is mine -- a different variation on the same motif.

Birds Over the Bridge

Shooting at birds, digitally

I've been enjoying walking over the Matmaoras / Port Jervis bridge lately. There's always a flock of birds that circles the bridge constantly. That's all they do. I wonder if they get tired of it.

Port Jervis, NY

...looks so quaint from afar

Sunrise 6:08

On the Delaware, looking towards Port Jervis, NY

I went out early this morning to turn on the air conditioners for the workshop and was blown away by the sunrise. I stopped on the road and took this photo from the car. I haven't seen a sunrise in a while and I miss the feeling of being awake to witness something so extrodinary. Peter and I need to get up early and get back out there photographing -- maybe this fall when it is cooler we'll be more motivated.
