The original mill is believed to have been built around 1826, but a flood in November 1942 washed it away. It was rebuilt in 1943.
Beautiful view I caught from the other day while I was driving home. I was on the highway and kept my eye on the storms I had captured earlier on, but my stomach was feeling hungry so I stopped through McDonald's in Charleston with my sister to get some food to take home...but the food got cold, due to the sky going crazy with color and the structure of the thunderstorm's low and mid-level structure being lit up with dark grays and pinks and reds. It was short-lived but incredible that it for that moment of time managed to show the colors it did. You can also see the inflow band feeding the storm stretching across the sky due south, as this panorama was shot by taking the camera and shooting one frame from the northwest to the southeast in a sweeping motion (as you normally would with a pano). The view was pretty wide as you can tell. The storm struggled a lot to keep the structure and while it wasn't the best, I swear I thought it had a tiny meso thus depicting a mini sub-supercell from time to time.
Thanks for looking at enjoy!
This was for sure one of the most photogenic evenings I have had this month.

Spent some time late this afternoon at Fifty Point...sure was great seeing these icicles covering the pilons...
On our way home from Riverhead today there was a beautiful colorful sunset that I needed to snap a shot of. I stopped across from the old Grumman property in Calverton and got this shot of the edge of the clouds, I liked the way the barbed wire fence framed the bottom.
Shot with a Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G lens with a CP filter.
A neighboring building just to the west of my balcony at the beginning of its construction two years back. Now that construction is complete, I've lost all my easy sunset and blood-moon photo-ops!
On the bright side however, it's nice to see that the economy is showing signs of life in that a large construction project such as this have started to pick up again.
A peep into the cockpit as Aer Lingus AirBus A330 EI-EDY "St. Munchin" starts its takeoff roll down Dublin's runway 28 as flight EI109 to New York (JFK).
Spent the day cruising around the coast. When I passed through Swansboro I couldn't resist a few shots of Capt. Phillips basking in some beautiful, warm afternoon light!
Looking back at the sunrise, heading out the Golden Gate chasing King salmon. (We got one nice fish!)
Looks best viewed LARGE on black. Really.

Schneider-Kreuznach Xenar 1:3.5 135mm Exakta mount. Extension tube (=M42-M42 focusing helicoid). Three image vertical stitch, vertorama.
One of the views which are magnificent to the naked eye, though not as easy to show it in picture.
I hope, I managed to isolated the tree enough to make this image interesting.
Used 10-stop ND to smooth out fast moving morning sky and circular polarizer to enhance reflections and contrast, so the tree would stand out more.

This beach in Wailea, right outside the restaurant, Sarento's on the Beach, was an incredible place to catch the sunset. There were so many elements of interest, including the silhouetted backdrop of West Maui.
By the way, I'd highly recommend eating at Sarento's on the Beach if you ever get the chance! The seafood and the service is incredible, and this is the sunset you'll be treated with.
Recalled coming across these teal chairs and table with such a lush backdrop and couldn't resist grabbing a shot!
surreal⛰️
where the beauty surrounds you on all sides
and all you can see are majestic mountainsides – surreal.
where the air is so clean and crisp,
and all you can feel is happiness inside – surreal.
this photo was taken at williams creek reservoir in colorado this summer. my favorite place to be.. i feel at peace with nature and myself, fully grounded and open to all experiences. all negative thoughts and feelings just seem to float off to the clouds.. as i breathe.. breathe in the happiness.

Autumn arrives at Fall Creek in the Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, in Santa Cruz, California. Two exposures, at 20 and 30 seconds, were blended for this image. A circular polarizer helped knock down the glare and accentuate the colors.
I like heading down the road - only 2.8kms from home and visit Crystal Cascades. Unfortunately it was nearly late morning, super bright, hot, humid, flies galore and not the best time of the day to be photographing. So tripod out, Circ Polarizer on (gave the ND filters the flick at this particular location) and snapped away. The filtered light through the trees knocked down the brightness of the tropical summer sun.
Always too much information in the rainforest. Would be ok if you viewed it a couple of metres larger, but definitely not small, like here.
Moments after passing under the Golden Gate Bridge, heading to dock in San Francisco.

Snow melt and recent rains replenish the streamflow of this beautiful South Fork of the Tye River below Crabtree Fall Day Use area and borders the Priest Wilderness.
A gorgeous little waterfall just downstream from Elakala #1. The following day this little gem was covered in 8 inches of new fallen snow. I had a 3 hour drive through the W.Va. mountains scheduled for that day, so I ran with my tail between my legs for the North Carolina mountains a day early! Here are two wonderful images from the the next day by Randall Sanger and Bill Fultz
236/365-Like a lot of photogs, any time I have to read its usually a photography book, so I thought I would pay homage to the ones that I go back to again and again along with the equipment I practice on after doing the reading!!
BTW the camera seen here, My sweet baby the Nikon D90 took this photograph. ;-) (ahh... the magic of mirrors!!)
-Strobist info-60w blue sky light bounced off ceiling
OK, here's the detailed list:
Starting at the bottom is one of my lightroom books:
--Lightroom 2-Streamlining your digital photography process By Nat Coalson. Now I must say, I liked the Scott Kelby book much better, BUT, I gave it away to one of my friends daughters as she went off to college with her new camera and Lightroom in hand!!
--The Hot Shoe Diaries by Joe McNally the King of small flash. This book is awesome, as was his other, the moment it clicks. I don't do a lot of OCF, so I am still learning, but reading and seeing what he does with 1 or 2 speedlights is inspiring and part of my journey for the second half of my 365!!
--DIgital Landscape Photography-in the footsteps of Ansel Adams and the Masters by Michael Frye Back to my love, landscapes! This book is filled with tons of Michaels amazing photos and great explanations in capturing a wide range of landscapes with digital cameras that will rival the masters. It helped me fully understand how to use the Adams' zone system with my DSLR and create perfect exposures on the first shot!!
--Photographing Nature this is one I just got at Costco, by Ralph Clevenger, so I have just skimmed it but it seems really great with lots of tips and tricks for all the things I like to photograph!!
--Understanding Exposure Ahhh, the classic by Bryan Peterson! I think pretty much everyone either knows about or HAS this one, a go to guide for Noobs and even experienced shooters, a real must have and a great first book!!!
OK, and finally on top for a reason...
--Vision & Voice:Refining your vision using Lightroom This is David DuChemin's latest release and this book, and Davids blog and E-book series have changed my photography LIFE forever!!! His views and insights into how we see things have completely altered my processing and composition, his blogs and books have made me look at what, how and most importantly WHY I take photographs and have forced me to look inward in a search for my personal "vision" and helped me learn how to bring the "voice" to my vision in the way I create and process the images I produce!! This impact may sound like photog hyperbole, but if you are stuck and wonder what this is all about and find your desires waning, your creativity tanks empty or a lack of personal connection with your art, then I dare you to start reading Davids stuff and things will change, for sure!! I pointed a friend to David's material and she experience the same photographic revival that I did!!(Right CM??) It really is that transforming!!!
got really lucky on our last day at Maryland during our recent spring visit there and was treated to this very beautiful sunset at the National Harbor...i found a small puddle on top of a huge boulder along the shoreline and used it to reflect the sky with its awesome colors...pls. View On Black
207/366: Into The Mountains
A shot from Coal Bank Pass Summit in Colorado at an elevation of 10,640 feet. If you haven’t driven on this road, let me tell you it is an adventure. I have to give a shot out to my father who did his best to stop when I would ask, in order to jump out and take a photography. This road between Durango Colorado and Silverton Colorado is the only road that will get you into Silverton from the south and it traverses many mountain passes and peaks. Nestled in the heart of the San Juan National Forest this road takes you into the forest and into the mountains unlike anything I’ve ever seen before in my life. It was an exhilarating adventure into a land and landscape my eyes and heart had only imagined. The vibrant green soft plushness of the grass, the mountains plainly visible to the eye, the snow-caped peaks, the gigantic tall and skinny pine trees and the brilliant blue sky all made for a photographers dream.
This photo was taken with my Lee Filters Circular Polarizer and Big stopper for an exposure time of 6.0 seconds at f/8, ISO 100 – 14mm.
