ccpix > February 22, In honor of Washington's Birthday I have made 2 posts. 
This is Mount Washington. It is the highest peak in the Northeastern United States at 6,288 ft. It is famous for its dangerously erratic weather; until 1996, it held the record for the highest wind gust directly measured at the Earth's surface, at 231 mph on the afternoon of April 12, 1934. It was known as Agiocochook, or "Home of the Great Spirit", before European settlers arrived.
The mountain is located in the Presidential Range of the White Mountains, in Coos County, New Hampshire. It is the third highest state high point in the eastern U.S. and the most prominent peak in the Eastern United States.
ccpix > January 16, Went hiking today to the Ice Falls in a nearby state park. The lighting was very flat but managed to get a few decent images. The orange coloring is from the high iron content in the water.
ccpix > March 14, Found this unique "sculpture" today along a country road in Illinois farm country. It was several miles from anything. It sits in a corn field that currently has some standing water due to the rain and snow melt. It just screamed "Shoot Me"
ccpix > February 19, A very hectic week and I apologize for not being able to comment much. I hope to spend a lot of time over the weekend with all the wonderful shots everyone has posted through the week. Have a great Friday!
ccpix > March 5, Got home from Washington DC late last night. First 2 days were overcast and raining but since I was in meetings all day it was not a problem. It also made for some decent night shooting. Then yesterday, it was beautiful. My problem was only having a few hours to shoot before my flight left. Washington is such a beautiful city and there is soooo much to shoot that I barely scratched the surface. I will definitely have to make a return trip.This is a quick turn around with one of the shots of Capitol Hill. Spent the Days on the hill meeting with several members of Congress on various Broadcasting issues. This was my first trip and a wonderful glimpse into the workings of government. I was so impressed with the number of bright, energetic and passionate young people who are involved in the process.
ccpix > March 10, Another post from DC. This is the World War Memorial. Located near the Lincoln Memorial it honors those who served in WW I and was donated by the citizens of the District of Columbia
ccpix > February 17, A late post today as I was out of town. This is another shot from the "Feast of the Hunter's Moon". This is the blessing of the travelers at the landing of the canoes.

ccpix > February 23, It was a very gray weekend...again. Not many people out either. This window jumped out at me primarily because of the vine and the way it embraced the wall and window.
January 16, Went hiking today to the Ice Falls in a nearby state park. The lighting was very flat but managed to get a few decent images. The orange coloring is from the high iron content in the water.
