Rock Neck Park



It's been a while since I updated this blog with anything pretty or useful. Things have been going 100MPH around here, I just wish I knew which highway I was on.

A few weeks ago we took a trip out to Connecticut and stopped at Rock Neck Park for about 2 hours while killing some time in our travels. There is something so liberating about nature photography. Even though you feel pressure to "get the shot" the scenery is usually nice and calming. Maybe if I did it professionally I would feel differently, because I know pro landscape photogs probably pull their hair out trying to get something groundbreaking (no pun intended), but for me it's a welcomed change from my usual line of work.

It was my first time in this park, and the last and only other time I'd been in CT was when I was a little kid. The park is absolutely beautiful, and even though we didn't get to see the whole thing, we took a nice relaxing walk around the lake and snapped some nice pictures.



I don't usually share a lot of my personal photos that I take during my downtime, but I decided that these would look great in my Nature gallery. So if you know anyone who enjoys a really nice landscape photo, now's the time to pick up an early holiday gift. Actually, I'm not so sure I can even say "early" since most retail stores have been pushing the Christmas stuff since, oh, Valentines day! More like September, but it feels like they never even put the stuff back in storage. I'm not a Winter kind of person, so when I see holiday decorations out and Football season has barely even kicked in, I start to panic!

Click on any 3 of these images to check out the gallery and browse what I have to offer. I'd think that they'd make an especially nice gift for someone who has possibly spent a lot of time in this particular park, or in the general CT area.



More to come...
