Bellamy Harbor at Sunrise
Bellamy Harbor Park, Rome, NY
I always assumed that Bellamy Harbor Park was part of the city of Rome’s responsibility. I have been giving the city credit for all the good renovation that has occurred over the last few years. It is actually owned by the New York State Canal Corporation. I guess I should be giving credit where credit is due.
The Canal Corporation has been adding a lot to the park on the East side, across Mill Street from the original park. Sunday morning was a great day to capture some of that new area with a nice dramatic sunrise as a backdrop. I also managed a few other views including a nice panoramic view of the barge canal looking East from under the Mill St. bridge.

Delta Lake State Park
Sunday evenings and Delta Lake work for me. I think it is a combination of timing and weather but what ever it is, I am definitely enjoying my time late on Sunday. Either the temperature was cooler or people decided to wait until the holiday but the beach was all but empty. Barely a car in the parking lot and only a handful of people enjoying the sunset. There was some remnants of a sandcastle near one of the lifeguard stations so I used the mound of sand to prop up my Lensball. My goal was to incorporate the chair in the sunset. I think it worked out quite well…

The End of Day
Delta Lake State Park
Sunday morning started out well as I was able to walk over to the river from my apartment and grab a few images of the sunrise. It was about using the morning light as it lit a scene rather than include the sun in the image. The rest of the day was about getting some of the chores completed that had been pushed to the side all week long. By the time the sun was beginning to set I was ready for more photography.
I drove the short distance to “old faithful”, Delta Lake State Park, to explore and see what caught my eye. The beach was still populated by a lot of people so I walked up to the picnic area above the beach. I was able to capture the sun as it began it’s descent below the horizon. Composing through the trees allowed me to use the branches as a natural frame. There was a slight haze in the air which dulled the sun enough so I could captured it without blowing the highlights. I also was able to get a few starbursts of light off the sun.
