Mother and Daughter

I really like this picture, it ranks very high on my list of favorites. It was the perfect moment, time was captured for a brief second and what was left over is indescribable. Whenever I need a boost I look at this picture, even when I don't need a boost--I still smile!!!

Stone Wall

I really enjoy shooting abstract photographs. This photo was taken at Great Falls. Yes, I know it is not Alexandria but it is fairly close. Sometimes I like to mix it up a bit!!!!

Lots of Water!!

For starters this photo was taken at Great Falls on the Maryland side, which is about 25 minutes from Alexandria. We have had so much snow and rain (more rain than snow) this is the result. The Great Falls area has a lot of water so much that many of the hiking trails are closed because they are muddy and under water. The water was moving so fast that one could hear boulders hitting each other from the force of the water, it was pretty cool!!

Bridge from the Park

This is another shot from the park over by Belle Haven. The large white bridge is the Wilson bridge. This is the completed side, when the other side is finished the bridge will be a twelve lane wide drawbridge. I believe the largest in the US, correct me if I am wrong!!

Rotten Wood

I am at again with my abstract pictures. This was taken at a park along the Potomac river over by Belle Haven in Alexandria. I really like the linear aspect of this picture down to the pieces of wood that are falling off. Lots of texture and detail--I love it!!!

Blue Doors

I stopped at a park today and there was this building with these blue doors I could not resist getting a picture. I really like the shadows that are being cast onto these doors.
