I took the long way out to Wegman's. On the way back I was shocked to see vultures on a fence watching the horses on Tufton Rd.

With the price of gas these days I'm trying to stay closer to home. The last time I took pictures of the community it was snowing. I figured I'd show the world what the community looks like in the summer.

This is the end of a series of photographs taken near Lineboro, MD. At one point during the day there was a major thunderstorm leaving tree a tree in the middle of road. We stopped so my friend could clean off his car.

A few minutes latter we came to a field of Longhorn steer. Across the road was a field of Bison.

I took these from the plane flying from Los Angeles to Baltimore, with a stop in Salt Lake City, UT. This film basically condensed a 7 hour flight in less then nine minutes. At one point we flew over Chicago, yet I think I missed it and only got Indiana.

I only had a few hours in LA. A friend drove me around giving me a mini tour. This was the first attempt at photography at night. The last picture is a gas station.

I woke up about 5 am due to jet lag. I decided to see if I could capture the sunrising. Later in the day I went with a group up to Meditation Mountain. What a wonderful place to spend a birthday.
