Sunsets – Week 1

As many parents know, once two siblings get together after along day, their combined energy level seems to quadruple if not more.

So with the lengthening of the days, I started to take the kids out for a late afternoon energy release at Shamona Creek Elementary here in Downingtown.

We have been here many time before, but not at sunset…

So started a personal project of trying to capture 30 days of sunsets!

Let me a comment, and let me know what you think.

Foggy Chester County Morning

The weather of the past couple of nights, has allowed for some fog to develop early in the morning, and on my way to a client, I was able to stop and take these images.

and as we know, fog is not that consistent, but when it is there, it can add to the scene.

I had photographed this scene a couple of weeks ago, when we finally had some snow, but as you can see, it has changed.

More horse with fog can also be seen here.

2011 Downingtown Christmas Parade

Mr and Mrs Santa Claus
Mr and Mrs Santa Claus

Yesterday was the annual Downingtown Good Neighbor Christmas Parade, which was held on a beautiful Saturday with the temperatures in the mid to lower 40s.

This year was the first time in three years, that I did not have my kids with me.

Why?

Well, my daughter was actually in the parade this year with her Brownie troop for the first time! (My wife and son decided to walk along with them!)

This allowed me to wonder around the parade as it happen, offering many more opportunities to find and capture scenes as they happened.

This years parade seemed much bigger, and from what I understand, there were around 400+ Daisies, Brownies and Girl Scouts this year alone!

Needless to say, I took many pictures, and was up until 4am this morning processing those images which can be found on Flickr!

I hope you enjoy them, and would love to hear your thoughts and comments!

Official DTown Christmas Parade pictures!

Earlier this morning, I got a delightful e-mail from a woman who works for the Downingtown Borough, and she was asking for permission to use some of my photos from the 2010 Christmas parade!

Needless to say, I was more than willing to help in this endeavor!

So within the next days and weeks, keep an eye out for my work, on the Downingtown Christmas Parade website, and an advertisement in “The Daily Local“!

Update
