Weather was moving in, so the sunrise came and went very quickly... followed by light rain.

Earlier this week I made my first visit of the season to Leesylvania State Park in northern Virginia. I saw a total of 20 bird species, including six I had never seen before. This Prothonotary Warbler was having breakfast when I spotted it in the Bushey Point section of the park.
Best viewed LARGE if you want to see what is on the menu.
A stumbled across a civic / religious ceremony in an Athens side street.
Whatever you view on separating Church & State this event was interesting and quite moving.
These were taken on my first trip to Henryton State Hospital, on my first real urbex trip.
From 2:30pm to 4:40pm me and a group of friends explored the buildings, and over that time I took about 550 photos.
I've never had so many photographic opportunities around me at once. The environment was a real challenge to shoot in, because of the constantly varying lighting conditions. Overall it was a very fun and rewarding experience though.
To our surprise, there were about 3-5 other groups roaming the hospital grounds at any given moment. People on rooftops, stairways, and even whole families. This place must have ZERO security on weekend afternoons.
Sadly this place, because of it's accessibility and notoriety, is horribly vandalized and run down. In an abandoned building you expect decay and such, but this place was downright beaten; no toilet or window left unbroken, and no wall left untagged.

It houses the Maryland General Assembly, plus the offices of the Governor and Lieutenant Governor. The capitol has the distinction of being topped by the largest wooden dome in the United States constructed without nails.
Thanks for taking a look at my pictures and photostream. I appreciate all the fav's and comments. If you're interested in seeing more photos from my trip to Annapolis, Philadelphia, and New York, check out the rest of the ArmyNavy17 album here.

For all you can say about the important parts of the State Fair of Texas (or any fair)--livestock, parades, autos, etc.--when you were a kid, did you want to see all of that, or did you immediately look for the Midway? A decade before this, my friend Tommy Vaughan and I rode three roller coasters here in rapid succession, with a Coca-Cola break between each. I have never been on a roller coaster since, and I don't want to ride another one, either. A couple of years before that, I lost a wallet on one of the rides. I went back to ask, and the man in charge returned my wallet. There are nice people on the Midways. Note the crescent moon in the upper right hand corner. That's not faked or photo shopped.

I have been battling some photography burnout lately, so I forced myself to get out and about today as the sky was looking quite nice for some summer photographs. Ultimately it was a good trip that helped light the creative spark a bit.
Here, the curve in State Street gives way to this view of the I-70 bridge in Belle Vernon.
CSX I016 Hollowell Church, PA
A two hour delayed I016-20 crossing the MD/PA State-line on the CSX Lurgan Subdivision.
The corn was high, which ruined a few of the places I had planned to shoot this, but I didn't want to spend the gas money to go a whole lot more North than this, so I'll settle with it!
Seems unlikely what you're telling me,
Mouth such icy ghost grey,
Remember the bitten plum of your lips,
Honey scented candle glow of September,
The grapefruit, burnt pine and clove
Of your fingers on my tongue,
Just close my eyes,
Replay the sound of your voice breaking,
Meet you backwards in time,
When the crack above your bed
Was the crack above mine.

I've been looking for somewhere new to take some pictures; I've spent the last couple of Saturdays just seeing new places and what else is available here in Washington state. This was a beautiful park! I could see our family hanging out here for an afternoon, having a picnic lunch, taking a hike; very nice indeed!

Utah has the most incredible state capitol building I have ever seen, and I have been to a LOT of them. This is funny because it is one of the lesser populated states in the country. I shot this building several times a couple years ago, when I was in Salt Lake City. So, this week, I tried to think of what I could do different this time around. Last time, I shot it with afternoon light. So, I tried shooting it at dusk. Last time, I was also bothered by how high that front wall is, and how it blocks the view of most of the front lawn. To get a higher angle, I shot this from the roof of my truck. So... I did this shot very quickly. I drove my truck up the curb, and onto the median in the center of the road. Jumped onto the roof and set my tripod up there. Snapped this, then jumped down and took off before I was questioned by Capitol Security.
