Franklin, New Hampshire Photo Tour

Library

Mojalaki Country Club

My husband Bob came up with an idea "why not photograph towns/cities in New Hampshire." I have to admit his idea never occurred to me, what a great suggestion!!! I did not want to photographs that were "SNAPSHOTS" and decide to take artistic images of landmarks and sites of the towns.

White Pines After Snow

I woke up early an took this image after the snow storm, two rows of White Pines. I played with Paint Shop Pro's Geometric effect for an artistic feel of a plain photo.

Red Tail Hawk and EASTERN SCREECH-OWL (Hidden)

Saturday in NH was a beautiful day, 48 degrees, no wind. We decided to take advantage of the day and took ride to our 18 mile seacoast. We were NOT alone, we found people walking, running, biking, birding and photographing.

Our first stop was Odiorne Point State Park, pulling into the parking lot Bob notice a Red Tail Hawk, excited I grabbed my camera and starting shooting.

Leaving the park we noticed a group of photographers and birders looking up toward a tree, we stopped, again I grabbed my camera and found a gray-morph EASTERN SCREECH-OWL. As first I did not see the owl in the tree trunk, a kind birder allowed me to look through his powerful binoculars. Hidden I could see the owl.

I am not a wildlife photograph but I try and Saturday was a dream come true, photographing decent birds images.

Water Inlet, Winter Scene

Sometimes you can go out shooting and return home without much success. It happen to me last Saturday, a few images but one WOW factor image. Great lighting, time of day really made my journey well worth it. I lucked out!!!

Franklin, NH, Old Train Trestle In the Winter
