Carter Mountain is like a staple weekend trip for the people I know in the fall time. You can drive up the mountain and pick apples straight from the tree. It can be a great time but you eventually realize that you have way to many apples in your bag and feel bad to waste them.

Big Meadows in Shenandoah National Park is a great place to walk in a meadows. If you are lucky you would come by some deer walking and eating in the area. There are two or three small areas of these trees some are alive and some are not. They are also covered by lichen. I captured this on some Holga 400 film with my Fujica G690bl at 100mm.
Walking in Bryan Park in Richmond is very relaxing. Not crowded usually and there are plenty of trails through the woods and have some ponds. When I took this picture I had just gotten a Fujica G690bl Medium format camera with the 100mm f3.5 lens. This image was captured using that on Holga 400 120 film. So far really like the camera but I need to get a strap for it and one that can handle thee weight because this rangefinder is large indeed.
Was out with the group recently again to grab some great pictures of Monument Avenue in the city of Richmond. There are some great houses down there and they also do a great job at decorating and lighting them up for the holidays. It was a great time and there were plenty others walking down the avenue enjoying the lights with coco. I used my Canon 60D and EF-S 17-55mm f2.8 lens for all these shots with a tripod of course.
Thanks for looking!
This past Christmas Holiday I went down to the flood wall on the Manchester side of the city to capture the lights of the city skyline. The edges of the buildings get festive and you can capture some great reflections on the James River. It go cool that night but the sky was clear and I had a great time with others out there.
