sunrise, sunset

Two visits down to the mall this year to check out the late blooming cherry blossoms, one for sunrise, one for sunset.  The Jefferson memorial was, as always, photogenic, right at sunrise and after the sun went down a few days later. 

trying to spring

Spring was starting to spring a few weeks ago at Dumbarton Oaks Gardens.  A few buds, flowers, greenery, and some very shiny crystals decorating one of the garden areas.

let it snow

While New York and New England got dumped on by up to several feet of snow, so far we've only had a few dustings.  But those dustings made for a magical wintry walk through Rock Creek Park a few weeks ago.  I hope we get more...

a warm winter stroll

Last weekend a very pleasant walk through middle patuxent environmental area in clarksburg, md - howard county.  The sun was out, the jacket came off.   A nice chance to catch my breath. 

 

welcome 2013

A winter's stroll at sky meadows last month.

Small camera, big mountain

my little camera, my trusty point and shoot, broke after 5 1/2 years of hard wear and tear.  In tribute to it, a few shots from washington area's favorite rock scrambling mountain, old rag, taken from my little canon powershot four years ago.

A healing journey

A healing journey two years ago through the woods, mountains and shore of virginia.
