Ok, here's a new idea to stimulate some posting. Post your favorite photos of the pines and maybe throw a little blurb as to why you like it so much.
Here's the rules:
1. The photos must be your own.
2. They must be smaller than 800x600
3. You can host them in your own personal gallery here, on your own website, or attach them to a post.
4. Keep it to 3 or less photos.
5. It must have to do with New Jersey in some way.
Here's mine:
Sandy Hook Light. I just like how the geometry works in this photo. It gives you a sense of how tall this lighthouse actually is, because it doesn't look real tall until you get close to it.
I took this photo at Brooksbrae sometime in 2001. This was done in 35mm, which I still insist works better for me than digital. This really captures the wonderful blue color of the dusk sky, and the flash brings out a lot of the color of the brick work and graphitti. I generally don't like my historic buildings peppered with graphitti but it doesn't really bother me as much at Brooksbrae.
For some reason people tell me that this is their favorite photgraph of mine. I have received more compliments on this, and I really don't understand why. I have a lot of my Sarco photos up in frames in my dining room, so people generally comment on them. The room was nearly pitch black when I took this photo. I used my 35mm camera and it's built in flash. Somehow it was good enough to auto focus and really brighten up the room with the flash. To this day I still wonder how someone got that chair up there.
