Photos on display at Magnolia's

Selected Loudoun Landscape photographs are currently on display at Magnolia's in Purcellville. If you're in town, stop in and have a look.













The tuna is terrific, I suggest a Dale's Pale Ale to go with it. Tell Patrick that Dave sent you!

Foggy mid-week morning, and still

The early Wednesday morning fog pulled me from the house in search of quiet Loudoun scenes. These two continually honking Canadian Geese did not favor my visit. Everything else was quite still. Taken near Snickersville Turnpike.






















While shooting at another location yesterday, this crazed beast from heck comes tearing around the pond at me. The newish Black Lab could hardly stay in it's own fur as it bounced around seeking nothing but fun. After realizing I was not fun (the camera you know), it tore around the pond and ripped a hearty branch from a tree. I was just leaving as the hapless canine returned with his treasure.

A chicken in every hand

The Chorus of the Old Dominion is at it again with a light hearted delivery of fine vocal verses. The group gathered at the Bluemont Store on a chilly January morning. For some reason, this called for the cuddling of chickens. Watching patrons walk into the store was as much fun as doing the shoot itself. Featured on the Blue Ridge Leader on February 27, 2009.
