Snow Ridge sans Snow

Turin, NY

I dropped my daughter off at work over in Rome this morning and decided to head up north to find Whittaker Falls. A friend at work told about this park and today was the perfect day to go on an adventure. I didn’t have to be back to pick her for 5 hours.

I packed both cameras in the car. Had the hiking boots ready to go. There was a beautiful sunrise and just enough clouds in the sky to make some interesting images. Of course, there also was plenty to see on the drive north.

Just a few miles south of my destination is Snow Ridge. I nice little ski resort nestled into the side of some hills on the west side of route 26. I couldn’t resist pulling the car over to capture the morning sun on the resort. I’ve never ventured up to this resort to ski but if I do pull the equipment out this year I might have to give it a try…

The weather forecast this morning was ‘iffy’ at best so I only brought along my Olympus E-P3 camera. I thought maybe I could grab a quick image during lunch or just before picking my daughter up from college. Even though the sun is setting way earlier than I am use to I did manage to wander around part of the SUNYIT campus after work. There was a beautiful sunset that I was able to capture in the reflection off the new nanotechnology building (I’ll share later) but what really caught my eye were the bicycle racks outside of the Student Center. Let me know what you think of them…
