This gentleman was demonstrating the art of leather making at the Kutztown Folk Festival (Kutztown, Pa.) yesterday. In this image he is using a tool to put holes into a leather belt. Fun to watch and photograph!

There are so many different groups of people represented at Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area during the snow geese migration. First you have the true blue birders who have magnificent binoculars and can name every bird that flies by including their scientific classification. Then there are the photographers….which vary from the serious wildlife folks with the 6 zillion mm camouflage lenses right down to the people taking photos with their cell phones! You also see the families with kids and dogs just out for a hike and to witness the migration without worrying about recording the moment through photos. When the wildlife activity slows down, I usually turn my lens to the people and dogs at the park as there always seems to be something of interest that catches my eye. In this instance, it was an older gentleman watching the wildlife activity through his binoculars.

I distinctly remember taking this image. It was at the Bucks County Kennel Club show in 2012. I was waiting to photograph the German Shorthaired Pointers and I was standing underneath one of the big tents. There are usually quite a few GSP’s entered in the shows and this day was no exception. While I was waiting, I spotted this pup looking away from the ring and standing a little bit away from the crowd of people and dogs. I loved that the crate and water bucket are in the background as it adds a nice pattern to the image. I can’t remember exactly, but this may have been the pup that did his business on his handler’s foot and they had to go back to the grooming area for a little clean up before going into the ring! 🙂

The lifeguard chair sits idle on the beach all winter long … just waiting for the warmth of summer when the swimmers come back to the lake. You can barely even see the lake in this image as it’s coated with a thick layer of fog on this gloomy, yet mild, winter day.
