Mist on the Water
Upper Falls, Letchworth State Park
I traveled back home this past weekend to help my mom. Originally it was the weekend I was to meet my daughter at my Mom’s before her last semester at school became too busy. We combined the too agendas.
She came up from West Virginia University and I drove out from Rome. I was able to help my Mom on Friday and then the three of us spent the weekend together. I was also able to get a few images around my hometown.
Late Saturday I decided I would take off early in the morning to catch the sunrise at Letchworth State Park. By early, I mean I left at 3:30am. It is almost a to hour drive to the Castile entrance and I wanted to be able to capture the blue hour with sunrise occurring at 6:30am.
Without a cloud in the sky the actual sunrise was a little boring (clouds add needed drama). I captured a few good images but still need to process them. I managed to stop at the three main falls along the Genesee river although the trail to the foot bridge near Lower Falls was closed. I really liked this image of Upper Falls…

Good Morning Bemus Point
Bemus Point from ferry landing in Stow
Although they are still working on the ferry, I wanted a picture of Bemus Point from across the lake in Stow. Friday morning was a beautiful morning as I watched the sunrise in the rear view mirror on our way to Erie. I was hoping Saturday morning would be as good. It didn’t disappoint, but I have to admit Friday was a little more dramatic. I think I was able to capture a good one…

Mornin’ Delight
Bellamy Harbor Park, Rome, NY
I left for work a little later than usual yesterday. A combination of long hours the previous day and a restless night of sleep had me dragging my feet out the door. It ended up working out for the best. The pre-sunrise sky was full of color and improving by the minute. I didn’t make it very far on my drive before the car was turning toward Bellamy Harbor Park. I know I grab a lot of images at this park but it is close and the conditions are always to my liking… interesting details, water for a reflection and the sun rising in the background. How could I not stop?

The Marketplace
Harambe Market, Animal Kingdom, Walt Disney World
Although I was dodging the rain most of the evening, it did allow for some nice blue hour photographs. The added benefit of the rain is the number of people I had to wait for was drastically reduced. I’ve been able to capture an image of this area in the early morning but this one after sunset might be my favorite so far. The new wide-angle lens helped a lot to allow me to capture this in one image…
