Have you ever wondered what a road would look like covered in leaves during the autumn season? As I listened to the sound of my footsteps rustling through the leaves I decided to stop and go no further. Should I follow the yellow leaf road? What is beyond the yellow leaf road? West Wooster Rd.

An Eastern Tiger Swallowtail butterfly finally decided to sit long enough and gently spread her wings for me to photograph. As I thanked her for being so kind, I thought to myself, I have never seen Rogers Park Pond look so lovely as it did on this day. I guess if you keep revisiting a place long enough you will eventually see just how special some places really are. 05.30.04

I love the mornings after an evening snowfall. Especially when the snow is so light & fluffy that it’s able to pile high even on the littlest branches. The Still River off Triangle Street in Danbury. So peaceful & tranquil, that, for a long while, I have forgotten how cold I was. 11.27.02 9:36am

To see the longest waterfall drop of 70 feet you have to follow the Kent Falls trail. 1/4 mile long with a 250 foot vertical climb. But it’s the other smaller series of waterfalls along the trail, that to me, are the most intriguing. A very special place. Kent 10.10.06
