Taken with my cell phone while looking out into the forest from inside of the cave behind Big Laurel Falls at the Virgin Falls state natural area in Sparta, Tennessee. Normally there is a steady torrent of water rushing over these Falls but due to the extreme drought All Summer Long there was barely a trickle of water. There was enough however to refill our bottles on the way to the main Falls and back. If you are a serious hiker and you have at least one full day preferably two to three to spare, make sure you visit this location. It is amazing

I made a quick stop by the boat ramp at Lums Pond State Park in Bear Delaware this evening while running errands. This is my favorite place in the area to watch the sunset. On a busy stressful day, like today, I find it quite beneficial to take 15 to 20 minutes and decompress somewhere peaceful

I took this picture at Battery Park in the historic district of New Castle Delaware. This is the remnant of a very old Pier where William Penn first stepped onto American soil. It is often thought that Penn's Landing in Philadelphia Pennsylvania was his first step into this country but it was here in Delaware in 1682.

I took this picture with my Canon 70d at Battery park along the Delaware river in the historic district of New Castle, Delaware. This is a beautiful area with loads of great history. New Castle was one of the first places settled in the US. The cobblestone streets, old red and yellow brick sidewalks and colonial houses are all original and we'll maintained to their late 1700s/early 100s origins. If you've ever seen or been to colonial Williamsburg, Virginia, or a few other restored colonial era towns, theor designers surely used New Castle as a template.

This is Randy the stagecoach driver with his horses and the Wells Fargo Stagecoach. I took this picture back in April of last year in Rumson New Jersey covering the parade for a client. It's a beautiful Seaside Town loaded with billion dollar mansions

I took this picture yesterday of the old Bancroft cotton Mills in Wilmington Delaware along the Brandywine River. In its prime, these mills were the largest cotton Mills in the country and one of the largest in the world. The Mills were built back in the 1800s, atop an older mill built in the 1700s, changed hands a few times and were abandoned and burned at least three times in the past decade the most recent being a couple months ago where a large portion of the structure burned for a week straight. There is a little man-made Dam that used to power a water wheel and it creates a perfect little still reflection pool. I'm a bit and then merge with the architectural Decay, colors and textures of this old structure. I hope you enjoy it too
