January is coming to a close. When cabin fever starts to set it, it is time to find some new subject matter!
This blog contains pictures mainly from Troy, Bradford County, in Northcentral Pennsylvania. I hope you enjoy a look inside the beauty of rural Pennsylvania, as captured through the lens of my camera, The photography contained in this blog has been shot primarily with Canon dslr cameras. I currently have a Canon Digital 70D with a variety of Canon lenses. I also use a Fuji Finepix occasionally.

I'm a BAAAAAAAAAD Man!
That was Jason's mantra during rehab, when he was working so hard toward his recovery. I found this quote by Muhammed Ali, which then hung in our kitchen for a long time. During my boring weekend, I found a picture of Ali, which I copied the quote onto. Jason, in all his humble modesty, looked at it and said, "It would look better if it was me in the picture." What can I say, it is his cocky attitude that has brought him this far!
The Last Snowman
This is the last of the snowmen for now. I put this one up because it it so unusual. It was a gift from Matty a couple of years ago for Christmas. It is made out of metal.

Let's Ski!
I'm not real fond of the shadows caused by the flash. I need to get some better lighting, so I can avoid the flash!

Matty's Snowman - Snow Me A Curve Ball
This snowman represents Matty, and his love for baseball. Unfortunately, the nose broke off, and sadly, this year, the bat broke too. It is sad because these are not available anymore.

Jason's Snowman - Reel Snowman
Jason is a fisherman. He has been since he was a little boy. We have several pictures of him holding fish that he caught. So, this snowman represents Jason. It is an "Ice Sculptures" snowman.

Ice Along Sugar Creek
Ice that accumulates along Sugar Creek, on Route 6, in Troy, Pennsylvania. This is an old photo. I don't think we've had enough sustained cold weather to produce ice like this.

Frozen Sugar Creek
Look closely and you will see the rope used for swinging into the creek in the summer! (archived photo)
