I took this picture at the Summit North Marina in Bear, Delaware. You can see the Summit bridge in the background. The water is the C and D canal

I took this picture yesterday at the Cooch-Dayett Grist Mill next to the site of the revolutionary war battle of Coochs Bridge in Newark, Delaware. The tree is covered with very old ivy

I took this picture yesterday at Battery park in New Castle, Delaware

I took this picture last night at Glasgow park in Newark, Delaware

I took this picture of the Christina creek at Rittenhouse Park in Newark, Delaware with my cell phone camera. I climbed out over some sketchy moss and mud covered rocks to get to the middle of the creek for this shot. I need to go back there with hip waders. Not much online about this park but I've read that a 100 or so years ago (probably longer) a lady named Mrs. Rittenhouse owned all this land and she had this creek shored up and widened, paths laid and trees planted. The beech, river birch and certain oaks retain some of their leaves in the winter and everything in the woods is shades or gold, copper and bronze. Then you look towards the creek and, if it's not windy, you see the sky. Both banks are lined with thick tangled masses of exposed tree roots. The trees all bending and bowing towards the water.

This is one of a number of drains and cisterns in Wilmington, Delaware that leads rain flood overflows to the Brandywine river

This is the burnt remnants of the old Bancroft cotton Mills along the Brandywine river in Wilmington, Delaware

This is an inverted reflection of the post-sunset sky in the Christina creek at Rittenhouse Park in Newark, Delaware

This is a 5 shot panoramic stitch of sunset along the Delaware river at Battery park in New Castle, Delaware. In the center, across the water is a nuclear plant water cooling tower which I think adds a dystopian mood to the otherwise peaceful scene

This is a 3 shot panoramic stitch of sunset yesterday at the Hermitage Barn Complex at Glasgow park in Newark, Delaware
