How about some senic shots?

Here are a couple that took of the late fall for us here in Henderson, NV. Been nice seeing the fall foliage.

 



 



 

Tried to catch the leaves falling and you can just barely see them.

2 bald eagles (all brown one is a juvenile, they get the white feathers around the age of 5) over Verplanck, NY

I took this picture after leaving the Golf Club Maintenance Shed fire the other day. One of the beautiful parts of Las Vegas is that you can be in the city and then a couple of blocks latter your in the desert.

 

In this case the area around where I took this picture is urban houses, apartment complexes and golf courses and this area of trails and walkways is in the middle.

I've been meaning for some time to get the second shot in this post, but never could, due to emotional issues or weather, etc.



The first photo, taken on November 28, 1999, has become one of my most prized photos.  I really didn't think anything of it when I took it, but when I found it on a computer that I resurrected in 2002, the value became immeasurable.  In October of 2003, it gained even more value to me, as the good friend who was standing 5 feet to my right shooting the same scene on film, passed away.  I only wish that I had a better digital camera at the time, as I was shooting with a Sony Mavica FD-95 (which was high end at the time).







Early this morning, 8 years to the day, I shot the scene again.  The emptiness in the photo reflects the emptiness in my heart for 42 people that I knew that have passed since then with some connection to the photo.  RIP to the 343 + 1, specifically the 40 members of the FDNY, 1 member of the NYPD, and one very good friend that I had personal connections with.

I had the chance to capture this scene again last night.
