Barns Delight

Every time I pass this old barn I always admire it, and almost every time I have a planned out door photo shoot with someone, I end up using this as a setting. I am not sure what it is about it, the peeling paint, the faded red paint, the overgrown vine attached, I juts love it. 

Sunflowers Galore

It's not everyday you come across a field full of a million sunflowers in Pennsylvania.....so what to do with this opportunity, shoot a beautiful woman in the middle of it, and topless of course!

Two strategically placed sunflowers keeps this image rated PG13.

Autumn Snow

The calendar says Autumn, but the view is a bit wintry looking. A small snowstorm hit the our area on Thanksgiving eve dropping about 5 inches of the dreaded white stuff covering up the remaining fall colors.

Santa Comes To New Oxford

Saturday evening, the New Oxford Chamber Of Commerce hosted the return of Santa Clause back to New Oxford's beautiful circle in the center of town.

Nearly a hundred people waited his arrival in a antique car driven by town resident Jim Blankenship. Santa flipped the switch to light the tree, then sat in a sleigh and greeted children and took down their wish lists, and then gave them a Christmas book as a early present.

For a small town, it's a quaint little tradition and as a resident, I am proud of my towns effort to bring us together.

Autumn Isn't Gone Yet

The calendar still say's it is Autumn out, even if old Mother Nature has recently had it feeling like the middle of winter here in south central Pennsylvania. This was the view in front of a home in Abbottstown Pennsylvania all decked out for fall. 

Sunrise Duck Hunt

The difference a few minutes makes when capturing a sun rise is crazy. The top image is of a few men  launching their boat to do some duck hunting. I took around 5:00 am, on a very cold winter morning as the sun began to rise over the city of Lancaster Pa. This shot is a river level of the Susquehanna River on the west side. The lights on the route 30 bridge can be seen fading into the sunrise. The image below was captured about twenty minutes later after they were launched and beginning to power up to head up river.

Snack Time With JB

I recently was out and about in New Oxford for a memorial dedication event and my friend was there with her handsome little boy JB. He didn't want anything to do with me nor my camera. So, be just causal and patient, his mood lightened towards me and we captured a few just cute as the devil photos of him in front of the fountain on New Oxford's beautiful circle.

Yesteryears

Haircuts used to be cheap and affordable "back in the day" in New Oxford it seems. 

Jenettes's Olde Tyme Barber Shop sits in the first block of Lincoln Way East, aka Route 30 and The Lincoln Highway. 

This barber shop was started way back many years ago by a man by the name of Paul Rabine, Paul held shop for many years before taking ill and passing away. 

Today, haircuts are a wee bit pricier than a quarter like the "goold ole days"
