Had a fantastic day shooting at the Planting Fields Arboretum. Made some new friends. The arbortum also had a Rose Show, sadly a lot of the roses were not prestine, although I did a lot of shots, not sure if most are keepers.
I’ve now lived on Long Island for 24 years. When in High School, my friends and I used to go driving around just to get lost — yes, we had nothing better to do and because we had just gotten our license. I thought I knew Suffolk Country, most of it anyway. As I have gotten older I still seem to find new places that I have never been before.
Blydenburgh County Park is one of those places. I knew of only one side of the Park, although admittedly I had never gone inside even that one entrance. An entire section with an the old Blydenburgh home and walking area had been not known to me. Well I have now visited the park twice in the winter, and I can’t wait for fall to come. It will be an amazing scene with the colors and shapes, a large lake to get reflections, a high perch to be able to get the nice reflection, and I’m sure even more little treasures to find.
