One from the archives. Rainbow Falls at Watkins Glen taken back in the summer of 2006. This was my first experience with a digital camera.
Happy Friday!

Through The Lens 131 – Illuminations
One of my favorite sequences from Illuminations – Reflections of Earth.
Happy Friday!
Through The Lens 129 – WWII Weekend
B-25J Mitchell, ‘Takeoff Time’ performs a photo pass at the Mid Atlantic Air Museum’s WWII Weekend. Looking forward to attending again this weekend.
Through The Lens 128 – N&W 611 Roanoke Mornings
N&W 611 pulls into the station on the final morning of her 2017 Excursion Season. Hopefully this sight will return in the future.
Through The Lens 127 – Cunningham Falls
One of the upper cascades at Cunningham Falls. This one requires a bit of a climb to get to, but is worth the effort.
Through The Lens 126 – Glade Creek Grist Mill
The Glade Creek Grist Mill is a popular photo location in Babcock State Park in West Virginia. Definitely worth a stop if you’re in the area.
Through The Lens 125 – N&W 611 Spring Flowers
Last year about this time was the second weekend I chased N&W 611. The flowers in the foreground made this one of my favorite images from the trip.
Through The Lens 124 – Governor’s Palace Spring
One from the archives. This one was taken on a rare spring trip to Colonial Williamsburg. I need to get down there in the spring again to photograph more of the gardens in full bloom. Maybe next year.
Through The Lens 123 – N&W 611 Brown’s Summit
As a child I watched a video tape of the National Geographic program, ‘Love Those Trains’, until I wore it out. N&W 611 was featured in the opening sequence and I always wanted to see her run in person.
Last year, my friend Kevin invited me to chase the J with him and a couple other friends. I immediately took him up on the offer and ended up chasing three of the four weekends that 611 ran in 2017.
The image above of N&W 611 charging up grade through the rain at Brown’s Summit, NC was taken about this time last year on the first of the three weekends I chased.
Through The Lens 122 – Thomas Jefferson
I’m still chipping away at the photos from the New Year’s trip to Williamsburg and thought I’d share this one of Bill Barker as Thomas Jefferson. Mr. Barker has been portraying Thomas Jefferson for many years. I’m always impressed with his ability to respond to any question or situation in character. If you visit Colonial Williamsburg, make sure to find him on the schedule and make a point to see one of his public audiences. You won’t regret it.
