Maryland Lighthouse Challenge

We did the Maryland Lighthouse Challenge

9 lighthouses, 500 miles in a weekend. Two of the lighthouse look alike but there were 4 of the same style.

I recently had the opportunity to photograph an event at Fed Ex field for Art Monk(if you don't know who that is ask any football fan). The view of the stadium is from the owners box, as you can see he sees the whole field. Behind the owners box is his private dinning room where the event was held. After lunch we went on a tour of the stadium, this is the redskins locker room and a place few women have been, the training room.

Time to get caught up on August. First weekend a family picnic and camping in western MD. Second weekend fly to CT to drive home with hubby. Find a steam train that take you to a paddle boat on the CT river and then a drive down the east coast to home.

Annapolis part 2

The first night we shot the full moon it had been up about 30 min. We went back last night to get it as it was coming up and had that beautiful orange glow.

Full moon over Annapolis

So we are sitting at dinner and hubby says he will tape one of his favorite shows ( Hell's Kitchen) and go to bed early. Then he starts thinking about how we were talking about going to Annapolis to see where the full moon would be, tells me to look up the time for the moonrise. And now its about 11pm he is in the shower and I am just getting ready for bed, I think it was worth it. Good night moon.

My lazy Sunday

Sunday started out with nothing to do, first church, then lunch with friends,to the Aquatic gardens to shoot waterlillies,Hubby wanted peaches so to Thurmont for white peaches. They had pies in the oven so while waiting for the pies I went out to photograph their gardens. Then hubby wanted Getttysburg PA pictures with the wonderful clouds, and it just seemed right to wait and shoot sundown. And finished off the day eating the pie while sitting in the car(not the whole thing)

While standing in a field of sunflowers surrounded by bees,dragonflies and grasshoppers I was reminded of all the beautiful gardens we have to enjoy in this area. Here are some samples
