We planned to drive to Solomon's Island for the sunset, but the line to cross the bridge was so long that we would have missed it. Instead, we drove to Leonardtown Wharf to see the mediocre sunset. Undaunted, I tried out my new fluorescent filter that enhanced the blue hour look and made more beautiful photos. I liked the light on the flag that made it pop a little.

Wicomico Shores Landing
I discovered another boat landing, Wicomico Shores, in the northern part of St. Mary's County that has a very long pier. The first time I went there, the sunset was average, so I went back again later to see if I could add a few clouds to the images.
The little park also has a few picnic tables, a boat launch and a restroom. It is a very pretty little place for the local community.
Looong looong pier

Autumn in St. Mary's Part 2-2022
Some more Fall photos with pretty reflections near Hollywood. I was pleased to see a red canoe paddle by when the light was interesting in the afternoon.

Quiet Waters Park in Annapolis
We drove to Annapolis for a doctor appointment and spent some time at Quiet Waters Park afterwards. The dog park looks like it has been fixed up quite a bit with an overlook and two gazebos on the bluff.

Autumn in St. Mary's Part 1-2022
With this crazy warm weather, I was able to take some fun local Fall photos. I was trying to find places near water for Autumn reflections, country back roads (challenging since most places are paved now) and pretty leaves.

St. Mary's River State Park in Autumn
I visited the park to view the autumn foliage and walked a mile roundtrip on the uneven ground on the hiking trail. For someone with a foot injury, this was a little challenging, but doable if I kept my head down to avoid tripping on a branch. I met a lady with a friendly dog along the way. I photographed her dog, but he got very close, very quickly hoping to say hello.
