The area above the site was also dammed to create an irrigation pond.

We were at the end of Bay Avenue, Beach Haven tonight and didn't see any auroras. Clear skies to the south and out to sea, but towards the north it was cloudy. The area by the seawall is really nice for night shots. I missed photographing several shooting stars, they were just out of frame...

I found a two-fer... http://maps.njpinebarrens.com/#lat=40.090220197187705&lng=-74.61544990539551&z=16&type=h&gpx= Zoom out on the link, there are three planes! Is that a record?

I already have the urge to pay them another visit.;) I saw a graduated filter and limited lens that I don't really need... Thanks Dogg, I am enjoying this camera!

Is that another sales pitch for your parcel of land?:D The noise that will be heard this weekend is from national guard artillery training. I read that training will be all day Saturday, ending by midnight, and Sunday, ending by noon. The noise will be much louder and carry much further if...

Thanks for the reminder Dogg, for an update. I had a problem with the Canon 60D and sent it back. The shutter would malfunction and not fully cycle. It was random. I returned it and was told that it would be replaced. Canons were on backorder, a few weeks ago, with no known date when to expect...

Bachman, great work as usual! The relic of a church is a terrific shot. I wish that the individual that posts the no trespassing and other signs on buildings like this could place them off of the structure itself. I understand postings are a necessary evil but it could be done in a manner that...

Oh that is funny! Spung-Man made a lasting impression with former Mayor Chiarello and single-handedly derailed their ill conceived plans. Good job!:D

Terrific shots, Kevin! I enjoy your flikr page as well. Some of your photographs are in daring locations, especially the open girder railroad bridge by the Reading Station. If your dont mind a technical question- What lens was used for this series of photographs?

This is another roadside art piece, located in Hamilton, a stone's throw down the road from the sculpture above. This quad of Spaniards was created by Garrett McFann in 2000 and is on loan from the Sculpture Foundation. This sculpture is fourteen feet tall and painted aluminum. It is titled -...

Great stuff as usual! That pup Sparky, is going to be something else ... will you look at the size of his paws.;)

I google mapped the location and they have nothing to worry about, even if that was a cougar. Paranoid city folk living in a McMansion on a culdesac. Ugh! If you can't see a large cat on an acre of manicured lawn,while lounging next to your pool, well then you should be eaten. It is natural...

Very nice Teegate! What variety are the pitchers? Rugelii?

I happened to find a video of the hammer forge in Austria. Youtube can be a great tool. It could be of some help visualizing what I was thinking. Btw- The way the video is posted is a neat feature of the software upgrade

Ben, I feel that if you better understood how the forge was constructed, everything else around it would make sense. Did the water drive a turbine or a wheel? Was the wheel or turbine driven by falling water ? Did the raceway go through the forge or off to one side? What were the horsepower...

This is an original NJDOT service jeep. If you look closely, you can just make out the State of NJ badge behind the front wheel. I found this photograph digging around the State archives. The date is around 1953. Free tows!

The year of the gas station photograph might be earlier than 1930. I just read fuel/gas prices for the early part of the last century and in 1906, a gallon of gas was twenty one cents. A gallon of alcohol was fourteen cents. Interesting, the gasoline quality was of 88 degrees. I never heard of...

I think the group photograph of everyone enjoying the radio in the living room was reversed by a scan or flipped in what ever form of negative it had - glass plate, etc. The writing along the bottom edge is backwards.

Today. while passing through Whiting, I saw that the new development that was underway, has stalled. The one I am referring to is on Rt 539 and south of the 530-539 light. About a quarter mile away from the intersection and on your a left, a huge plot of land has been cleared but nothing has...

Terrific! Thanks, Mark! I enjoy old photographs, especially when they are black and white. Has anyone else noticed the daily attire for the period? The citizens of the day are well dressed and proper. The women with long dresses and boots, the men with suit and tie, topped with fancy chapeau.
