Profile Silhouette

Frederick is exposed normally in the background and the backlighting creates an interesting silhouette profile. Crop of a photo taken at the Overlook

A good day at the Antique shops

Woolly Worm

Back home we have a Wooly Worm festival with woolly worm races, queens, etc. The lovely caterpillar will begin to show bands and the bands are predictive of the harshness of the oncoming winter--so goes tradition

Terminal Termitis

This old tree along the walking path in River Bend Park fell to termites this summer. A closeup view shows their handiwork. No doubt a large colony had been established here

South Mountain Sunset

This beautiful sunset was spotted over South Mountain from The Catoctin Range above the Middleton valley. We had just
arrived at the overlook on the Black Thorn Trail and were enjoying the view when the sun peaked from below a cloud bank over South Mountain. As we watched the sun grew in size as it descended and became increasingly orange-red. A prettier sunset I cannot recall. Note the top of the cloud bank and the play of sunlight along its fringe

Bungalo

Tacoma Park. A photo walk today in Montgomery County's first Washington suburban neighborhood built to take advantage of train transportation. This style was derived from India where these style abodes were rest spots. They became popular in California in the early 1900s. Small 1 to 1&1/2 stories
