This finch was part of the feeding frenzy at my bird feeder this morning. Obviously the birds were aware that there was a rain storm on the way, and it made for some good bird photography from my kitchen window.]]>

Every once in a while I discover something new when I go out for a walk because I veer off of the normal routes I take. Last week I decided to walk to the top of Sweatt Hill instead of walking along the path I usually take through the woods. There's a really nice view from the top, especially this time of year when the leaves are changing color. In one direction I could see the Prudential and Hancock skyscrapers in Boston, and I never knew that Boston was visible from my hometown.
It looks like foliage photos are pretty much done for the year, so now I'll just be waiting for the snow to come along and add some natural decoration to the outdoors.

The leaves have finally turned colors in some spots, and I found some of those spots this morning. Welcome to autumn in New England.
Then I took a bunch of photos in Franconia Notch state park. This set of falls is near the top of Flume Gorge.

After the rain ended, the clouds gave way very quickly to clear skies in the west. Seeing light from the setting sun shine on the wall of my living room made me think that there was a possibility of a rainbow... and there certainly was. I really like this photo, but it's too bad that the house and trees were in the way because it looked like this rainbow was a complete arch. No doubt there was as leprechaun guarding a pot of gold on each end.
I was able to make it to my first Patriots training camp practice of 2008 this evening. They've been at it since Thursday, but due to weather and my work schedule, this was the first practice I was able to photograph and it was fun.
Since I don't have any connections with the sports media, meaning I can't get any press credentials to photograph the games, this is the closest I'm able to get to the Patriots during the season.

I was in New Hampshire for the weekend and had some good photos I was thinking about posting here, but then I got home and snapped a shot of this juvenile cardinal. It's the best photo of the weekend by far. I particularly like the detail in the bird's feathers.]]>
I took this photo last week after throwing some ice in my glass of water. While I was drinking I started to notice that there were all sorts of air bubbles that seemed to be trying to escape from the ice. Naturally I stopped drinking the water and spent about 20 minutes taking photos of it. This is the end result.
Also, I'm pretty much done with updating the look of the website. I still plan on doing something else with the navigation menu, but just about everything else is finished. Hope you like it.
