Let all the failures of your past year be your guide in the new year.

I can't control the wind but I can adjust the sails.

Shadows in Chelsea

It cost a fortune to live in Chelsea but nothing to visit and enjoy all the neighborhood has to offer.

Textures

Always looking for something different for editing photos.

Last Roll

More Oakwood

Is it me or does this guy look like Dennis Hopper? 

Oakwood Cemetery

A wonderful place to walk , just don't linger.

Sunrise Dance in the Woods

Autumn color reminds us we are all one dancing in the wind.

Woodstock NY

Walking in Woodstock is like entering a time warp that drops you off on the corner of " The 60's and Deadheads Ave, "

A few blocks later and your back to reality.

Nothing Like A Cloudy Day In Autumn

I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as autumnal sunrise by staying in the house.

Acadia NP

When I was younger I used to love going to Acadia NP in October. It is a wonderful place to photograph , so beautiful and easy access to most areas . In a week you could come home with enough photographs to keep you busy for months.

this year for the first time in 9 years I visited and was shocked . it has turned in to a madhouse with so many people . crowded everywhere . You will find that your waiting in line for everything. waiting to go to breakfast after 10 am and your still standing in line outside.

the one good thing , it is still one of the best fall foliage places to visit in the east. just plan at least a week there should you want to see most everything you would like too.

Something Different

Is 64 a number or an attitude ? 

On a Clear Day

It's amazing how clear things can be once you throw everything out of focus.

Hudson River Morning Walk.

It may empty into the Atlantic ocean but it starts way up at Lake tear in the clouds.With breathtaking views along the whole length.

Rte 86 , From Lake Placid to Wilmington

Just a short distance from each other but enough to keep one busy photographing for days and days.

The Adirondacks is the largest publicly protected area in the contiguous US , covering 6 million acres in northern New York. --- bigger than Yosemite , Yellowstone , Glacier , Grand Canyon and the Great Smoky Mountains combined. 

It is not a place you go for a week and can expect to see everything. each year I usually pick a different location to set up headquarters and work from there . after all these years I've seen a lot of it but haven't seen a lot more.
