Eight-Years Ago (26-November-2011) — Pennsylvania & New Jersey

Autumn Nature in Pennsylvania & New Jersey.

Colorful dawn from the Lambertville – New Hope bridge over the Delaware River. View from the bridge looking  east toward New Jersey. Back when I still worked at the Merck  facility in West Point Pennsylvania I crossed this bridge every morning very early trying to avoid traffic on Route 206. Image taken with a Nikon D3x and 14-24 mm f/2.8 lens (ISO 100, 14 mm, f/16). HDR composite from 5 images using Nik HDR Efex Pro.

Six-Years Ago (12-March-2011) — New Jersey

Late-Winter Nature in New Jersey. Delaware River Flooding and Backyard Flowers.

With all of the recent rain and warming temperatures melting the snow, the Delaware river had been flooding. I drove to Lambertville to get some pictures as the water was receding. Lots of trash washed up and was left behind in the Lambertville Inn parking lot next to the Lambertville – New Hope bridge. After getting home there were many more snow-drop and purple-crocus blooms to photograph.
