Driving through Lancaster County farmland on MLK  Day. Lots of clothes hanging out to dry on this Monday afternoon.

 

Same farm (zoomed in on and photoshopped).

 

This barn bears a striking resemblance to Senator Mitch McConnell and appears just as determined to defeat President Obama.

This roof looks like it would leak, and it does (a  Frank Lloyd Wright signature).

Taking pictures of a bike race in twilight conditions is not the easiest thing to do. Essentially, I try not  to get killed.

 

Some bike race “fans” watch from the roof of Mas Mexicali Cantina.

July 2010.

These photos are from last year and represent my first serious attempt at photographing fireworks. Hopefully I learned of few things. Sometime I’ll try again.

My competition.

 

According to the local papers Ryan Dunn had more than twice the legal limit of alcohol in his system and was driving up to 140 mph. The road, while straight, is dark at night and goes through a woods populated by deer. Not ideal, even for a more pedestrian kind of speeding.

Recent trip to Steve’s farm in western Massachusetts to see my first grandchild.

May 20, 2011 storms around West Chester, PA.

 

Two storms from last summer:

Interesting mix of different kinds of clouds, including a small portion (upper right) of what was a very nasty looking black one overhead.
