Upper Niagara Rapids

I like to photograph this little waterfall on Goat Island. Very few tourists visit this area anymore. It is accessed by an old forgotten concrete stairwell on the north side of the island. The stairs went to a natural spring where tourists to the falls enjoyed a cold drink of water. The water has been contaminated and the spring is long gone. All that remains now are traces of the stairwell and this quaint little waterfall.

0h More Fireworks

I have a ton of these from the fourth but here is the last I am posting. You get the idea. All the fireworks images below were taken with a Canon powershot sx50 hs with tripod. Settings were 4 sec. at f-8, iso 80. Once you have the first one focused set your focus to manual mode. This keeps the camera from zooming in and out re focusing every shot.

Fireworks in Chambersburg

Chambersburg put on quite a nice display of fireworks to celebrate America's birthday on the 4th of July. I enjoyed photographing the colorful patterns of light.

Strasburg RR

I noticed this cute little boy standing along the station tracks in Strasburg. The background was a perfect match for his attire to make a timeless old fashioned photograph. Always pay close attention to your surroundings and you'll be surprised at what you can find.
