Photographs and thoughts on photography and camera collecting
As I continued my walk along Dalmeny Road I passed a tree with some interesting looking bark – at least I thought it was interesting.

I have often walked past these houses and wondered why they they all look essentially the same (something which is not common in Briarcliff Manor). After a bit of research I discovered that they are two of six houses along Dalmeny Road originally built for workers of Briarcliff Farms. Another three houses stand on Old Briarcliff Road. Similar houses were also built on South State, Pleasantville and Poplar roads.

Not such a wonderful picture, but I don’t see all that many birds and when I do I don’t often get a picture. So you take what you get.

This stone bridge is almost directly across the road from my house in Briarcliff Manor. It takes a small road from what was once the gatehouse/porte chochere (long since remodeled and now a private residence) to a large mansion: Chilmark, the former home of V. Everit Macy (it still exists in private hands).
There’s something about it that fascinates me and keep going back in different lights, using different cameras, different lenses do see what kind of pictures I can get.
On the day I took this the late afternoon light was rather nice.
