    Swimming in clay/sand mines...

    Is it illegal to swim in Lake Oswego now too? That's about the only place in the Pines I used to go to swim (except when falling out of my canoe on the rivers). It even has a beach. Just about everything is illegal in NJ and NY. I used to live in upper Manhattan not far from the GW Bridge...

    The Lure of the Land - A photographic journey through the pine barrens, New Jersey’s

    Yeah, that night was a bit too exciting. I read your link. This technology is rather fascinating to me. I love the effects it produces. There's quite a bit to it, not so simple, lots of creativity involved. I like it. I'd need a better digicam, like a slr, though. I just have a little pocket...

    The Lure of the Land - A photographic journey through the pine barrens, New Jersey’s

    That one looks like the best, BI, according to this review anyway: http://captainkimo.com/hdr-software-review-comparison Picturenaut is another free program, Pancoast, and it sounds like it might be easier to use than Luminance. Intriguing technology. http://www.hdrlabs.com/picturenaut/

    Some more old PB photos scanned from color slides

    Thanks, Ben. The Quaker meetinghouse that I remember best was the Old Yellow Meetinghouse in Monmouth County, NJ. It was on my favorite bicycle tour route that I used to ride in central NJ a number of decades ago. Some of my other old Pine Barrens photos are posted on these threads (I guess it...

    The Lure of the Land - A photographic journey through the pine barrens, New Jersey’s

    That Verazzano photo brings back scary memories of one tranquil summer night when I was sea kayaking off Brooklyn when a huge summer thunderstorm struck and the tranquil night turned wild.

    4 Rattlesnakes Along a Road

    That's about what they used to tell you to do and I used to have success putting gasoline (from my Beetle gas tank) on the part of them that was sticking out, and then they'd wiggle their cute little rear ends, and it was then easy for me to pull them out while they were doing that. But then...

    Mullica Steam Boat

    I was going to say the same thing! The original AQ is still in Key Largo, FL (where I first went in 1973). Steam engines are great.

    Conn. Mountain lion was proved to be Wild

    I used to spend a lot of time in a fairly remote part of the northern Catskill mountains in NY. One time a local feller told me he had been out hunting very early in the morning, hiding behind a big rock, and he watched a fight between a wild cat and a much larger black cat that he called a...

    Those sunset photos are incredible, all of them, but, like Guy, the second one is my favorite. It's hypnotic!
