The hills of northwest Connecticut were blanketed in a fresh snow. The winds had stilled, the clouds had lifted, and a full moon lit the countryside.

On my post The Dark Side, Laurie of Life On The Bike commented: “One of my favorite subjects … the silhouette of a tree.”  So, Laurie, this one’s for you!

Racing The Storm

Racing the storm.  I happened to find a moment where the rain wasn’t pouring down.  While I was dry, relatively speaking, at this moment I had been standing in the pouring rain with my camera waiting for the right shot for quite a long time.  Well, that might not have been the best idea.  Don’t let the big marketing machine fool you.  The weather resistance of the Canon 7D isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.  This turned out to be a very expensive picture after my camera crapped out and needed a quick trip back to Canon to fix a little “moisture” issue.  See more images at SMB-Photo.com

Late afternoon in the neighborhood known as Little Italy. “Authentic” Italian restaurants line either side of the street. My father lunched at one that stated on the menu it was John Gotti’s favorite restaurant.

High praise, indeed!
