Point Lookout Visit

Dog Beach

We visited Point Lookout State Park on a gorgeous sunny day when the sky matched the water, due to a light haze, creating a fantasy look.  The tankers in the bay appeared to be floating in the sky.   We visited several locations, the fishing pier, the Point, the causeway, and the dog beach.  The dog beach was deserted when I arrived and a Great blue heron had taken up residence.

Breton Bay Visit

We went back to Breton Bay to see the sights along Bull Run Road on a lovely fall day.  We found a few places I hadn't visited before at the end of the road.

A Visit to Lusby, MD in Calvert County

We planned a trip to see a few places near Lusby, MD.  The first stop was Cove Point Lighthouse, open 2 days a week on September afternoons.  The beach is not accessible and sunset photos are only possible for nearby locals or people who rent the Keeper’s House.

We took a drive to the very end of Broome's Island Road in Calvert County to see the water and the scenery along the way on a beautiful late summer day.

New Peacock Triptych Just Posted

I have a fondness for peacocks, as long as they don't live in my backyard!  I just love how proudly they show off their colors to entice the female peahens.  I wanted to try making a triptych, one of those 3 panel acrylic photographs.  They look great behind your couch.  I also added a whimsical t-shirt with the back on the back. LOL.  I hope you think this one is special.

Coltons Point and St Clements Visit

We took a day trip to Colton's Point, MD and St. Clement's Island Museum area on a beautiful late summer day.  I hope you enjoy the photos. Some of my previous visits to the area were for the Blessing of the Fleet in October.
