I've been trying to learn to take photographs for what seems like forever. Really, I should just take some classes, but I haven't. I'm on my 5th camera, as far as I can remember. My current camera, the Nikon D80, is my all-time favorite. I've had it for two years now, and there's still much for me to learn about it. In the meantime, while I'm fumbling my way around photography, I hope you enjoy the view through Lynne's lens! I'm also attempting to learn about post-processing, specifically, using Capture NX. Check out my photo blog to read the story or the questions about some of the shots: http://ljk-images.com.

Chestertown Downrigging : Stan and I went to Downrigging Weekend in Chestertown, MD.  We went for a ride on the Sultana which is a circa 1756 schooner down the Chester river.  The weather wasn't too good, but at least it didn't rain while we were out on the boat.

Ephrata, PA : Ephrata Cloister - Ephrata, PA
October 25, 2009
Stan and I drove the few hours up to Ephrata, PA and visited the Ephrata Cloister which is a religious historical site.  The community was established in 1732 by Johann Conrad Beissel.  The last surviving resident of the community, Marie Kachel Bucher, died in 2008 at the age of 98.  While during its peak, the Cloister grew to 250 acres, the historical site today is approximately 28 acres, comprised of various buildings.  The Ephrata Cloister is a National Historic Landmark.  If you want some great food in Ephrata, definitely visit Lily's on Main Street.
P.S. - Today was my second anniversary with the D80.  I still love it and I'm still learning it!

Blackwater Wildlife Refuge : Blackwater Wildlife Refuge is located on Maryland's Eastern Shore, near Cambridge.  We visited on October 12th.  It wasn't a nice day and the sky wasn't pretty, but it was a great experience and we really enjoyed the birds and the scenery.  The refuge is home to 200+ species of birds in the winter, and is home to the 2nd largest population of bald eagles on the eastern seaboard.  We saw 10 eagles while we were there.  I couldn't get close enough for a decent photograph; I need way more lens for that.  I would like to visit again in the winter and see what it has to offer.

Idaho, Yellowstone & Grand Teton : Stan and I enjoyed a beautiful and adventurous trip out west where we visited the Sawtooth Wilderness Area near Stanley, Idaho as well as Yellowstone National Park and Grand Teton National Park.  We had an aggressive schedule, but we got to take in a lot of beautiful scenery.  I am ready any time to return to these amazing areas.  I know that we missed more than we saw.
