Taskinas Creek Trail


Returned yesterday to the Taskinas Creek Trail in York River State Park, a wonderful place to observe wildlife. Just in the time it took the Washington Commanders to score about 20-points in their Sunday afternoon game with the Carolina Panthers, I heard and/or saw Great Blue Herons, Pileated Woodpeckers, White-tailed Deer, Barred Owls, Red-shouldered Hawks and Red-bellied Woodpeckers, not to mention the leaves of various deciduous trees just now beginning to show their fall colors.

Memo


Always, ALWAYS, it's the maple trees that get the memo early. :-)

Burg Ehrenfels


Resurrected this photo recently from a visit I paid to Bingen-am-Rhein. Taken just after sunset. 

Linking again today with Skywatch Friday.

Experiment


More of an experiment than anything else. I wanted to see if I could somehow capture the sunlight streaming through this maple leaf I spotted while walking the Virginia Capital Trail near Greensprings. I was using an Apple iPhone 13 (ISO 50 - 48mm - f1.6 - 1/1992 s).
