I've been very busy lately.
I finally posted a little album of photos of the Cherry Blossoms in April 2013 in Washington DC on my Calm Reflections Photography Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/CalmReflectionsPhotography. Please check it out! I was practicing some unique techniques, panoramas and focus stacking in Photoshop.
I want to share two of my recent favorite photos. Neither of them won the April competition at our local camera club, but I liked them. Maybe you will too!
The pier photo was taken on an early special morning in February when the mist was lovely and the sky became pink.
The squirrel was outside my window. He/She was running up and down a maple tree looking for nuts. He almost looks like he is smiling.

Great Falls Virginia on the Wild Side
We visited Great Falls National Park in the morning recently after lots of rain. It is a wonderful place to photograph the sunrise. The current was strong and exciting. I'd never even heard of Great Falls before moving to Maryland. There is a quite interesting history behind the falls if you are curious, including a time when they tried to use it for a canal and it more recently had a carousel amusement.
The park is on the border between Maryland and Virginia in Fairfax County, near Washington DC. It is a great place to visit anytime in the year. It is also very popular for walking your pet (on a leash of course) and hiking.
Fun things to photograph at Great Falls include the C and O Canal, birds (like great blue herons, geese, turkey and black vultures), deer, kayaks and the falls themselves.
I am also including a photo of a rainbow in the falls. How many colors can you see in my photo?
