outdoor photography

Western Maryland Back in October 2005 I was living in Maryland, and my father and I drove out to Western Maryland for some fall color photography. This was the view outside of the place we stayed. We spent a pretty good amount of time right here in this grove of trees, and we took a few closeup shots of the leaf "litter" on the ground. It's kind of amazing sometimes how nature can be beautiful at every level, from the scenic view to the close up. Beautiful Leaf Litter Leaf Macro

Monroe Run Our family used to vacation in Western Maryland every August.  In 2009, I found a trail in the Savage River State Forest following a stream called Monroe Run.  At the time, I don't think I cared too much for these photos, and I never did anything with them.  I wanted bigger and better waterfalls and clearer skies I guess.  But now that I live in the land of flatness, I'm somewhat drawn to them, so I figured I'd share them with you.
