Blossom’s enjoyed at Maymont

April 23, 2016 — Leave a comment

I really enjoy spring. Winter is going into hiding, flowers and leaves are popping out. The weather turns nicer, slight chill in the morning with nice 70 degree weather around noon. It is great for working outside and also going about the city or anywhere outdoors to enjoy whats out there. The cherry trees at Maymont are really nice and they are view able just inside the gate. There was a nice old weeping cherry tree down by the pond in the Japanese garden but it was cut down this past summer for some reason and they replanted the same type of tree just significantly younger and shorter. Honestly the blossoms are nice in color if you have the nice deep pink flowers, these are white and they look great in monochrome as well.

I like walking down some of the alley ways in Richmond and I usually come across some graffiti and also sticker.s Richmond loves stickers so I have noticed. Here is some graffiti on Provia 400X. Taken with a Vogitlander Bessa R4M with a 21mm f4 lens. 88610030

Another year of Cherry Blossoms

April 5, 2016 — Leave a comment

The Cherry blossoms were blooming in Richmond starting March 20th and they are now gone from the rain and strong winds that we had after a gorgeous week. I missed the peak bloom this year in Washington D.C.. The tidal basin is wonderful to walk around but this past weekend had a ton of traffic and the crowds there are insane on the weekends unless you get there at sunrise which I hear still has a good number of people. Brown’s Island down by the James River in downtown Richmond has some blossoms and you have the skyline in the backdrop.

First Time at Libby Hill Park

April 2, 2016 — Leave a comment

My sister had just gotten a new job and wanted to go celebrate at one of the new brewery’s in the city. After a few drinks she wanted to see the sun set and I gave her a ride up to Libby Hill Park. Apparently she had never been up there and it was a great day with plenty of people watching the sun set. She couldn’t stop taking pictures on her iPhone so I grabbed a quick photo of her photography skills.
