Welcome to Crozet!

A frequent occurrence of clouds, brought to you by summertime and being located in the valley of Afton Mountain.   

More C-Ville Weekly assignments!

This was fun.  I had to cover the pie eating contest at Carter Mountain Orchard for C-Ville Weekly.  I have to say, the kids really went at it and a good time was had by all!  A young girl named Fraser was the winner and I imagine her picture will be in the paper this Wednesday, stay tuned!

Thursday's Frog

On Facebook, I've been posting a frog photo almost every night using a pen light and iPhone. Tonight, I decided to use my 35mm with a 24mm f/1.8 macro and the same pen light.  Much better than the iPhone captures, still...I had to work at it.  I went back and forth with the ISO, f-stop and color temperature.  Makes me wonder about the future of automation.  

right before the storm

This was the scene in Crozet right before the big rains came....a day before the 4th.  Maybe we'll get a reasonably dry one for the fireworks?
