  • 10-06-17.  Same rest stop.  The birches contrasted wit the color behind.  If you are curious as to where these images were taken, hit the "I" button below the image and then "map".  I love my new geotagger!

  • 10-08-17.  We went to the John Jay House in New Bedford NY.  This is the hourglass garden.  All the flowers had finished blooming so that this clump of New England Asters really stood out.

  • 1-10-17.  Back to Stony Brook, this time with a tripod.  I first thought the orange color on my favorite bridge was iron, but its actually some form of moss or lichen.  Another thing to check out.
