Photographs and thoughts on photography and camera collecting
This was taken with a Panasonic Lumix LX3 on the train home from Grand Central Terminal to Scarborough. As I recall I’d had a few beers and I was playing with the camera – partly to get more familiar with it. More importantly perhaps I was trying to keep myself occupied so that I didn’t fall asleep and miss my station.
Seen in Geneva, Switzerland some time in August, 2010. I believe it’s either an XK-120 or an XK-150, but I’m not sure which. Actually, as I’m looking at it I’m becoming more and more convinced that it’s an XK-120, largely because the 120 had a two piece windshield while the XK-150 a curved single piece. Whichever it is it’s certainly a beautiful car.
You’ve got to love that Jaguar hood ornament.

Taken with a Sony NEX 5N, 16mm lens and ultra-wide converter. Small park/plaza adjacent to the UNICEF building on East 44th Street (between 1st and 2nd) in New York City.
Came across this on the Hudson River waterfront in Cold Spring.
Teatown Lake Reservation is one of my favorite places: to walk the dog; hike around myself and just sit and watch the world go by. It’s quite large: 1,000 acres including the 41-acre Teatown Lake, 7-acre Shadow Lake and 9-acre Vernay Lake, streams, waterfalls, hardwood swamps, mixed forests, meadowns, hemlock forests and laurel groves. There are a number of trails so you don’t have to repeat yourself too much. One of the easier walks is around the lake. It’s flat and takes between 45 and one hour depending on how fast you walk. It was on one of the walks around the lake that I came across this tree overhanging the lake itself.
