Photographs and thoughts on photography and camera collecting
I liked the mock Tudor look of the brick building seen in the background behind this attractive wrought iron archway. I’ve tried to find more information on the history of the building, but so far without success.

We were driving up Grand Street in Croton-on-Hudson on our way to a doctor’s appointment when we came across a lovely old house overlooking the Hudson. After we’d parked I took the dog for a walk in the direction of the house. It turned out to be a funeral home, specifically the Edward F. Carter funeral home.
For some reason I didn’t feel comfortable taking a picture of the building, so instead I took one looking across the property over the River Hudson, with an enclosed vegetable garden (I think) in the foreground.

Seen on one of the structures in a nearby playground. I assume it’s some kind of device that children would play with. I have no idea what it’s called. I just liked the colors and the repeating pattern.

I liked the shape of the bare branches against the sky and decided that I silhouette would work well.

This was the first exposure I made using the Vivitar 35ES. I’d taken the dog for a walk in our neighborhood and we reached a small park with playing fields and a small playground for children.
It was late in the day and the light was appealing and, in addition to the colors, I liked the composition with the goal posts in the foreground and the other structure to the rear. I believe this has something to do with baseball, but I don’t know enough about baseball to know what it’s called.
