As soon as I opened this image I saw the dark “spot” in the center/left (above the roof of the houses behind the farm). I zoomed in a bit and lo and behold, it’s a bird flying over the landscape. Question is….what type of bird? It’s large and when zoomed, it just might have a white head. How cool if I accidentally included a bald eagle in flight while photographing the Lancaster, Pa. scenery!

Always remember to take a moment to stop and smell the flowers along the way ……

When I look at this image, I can smell the wonderfully fragrant lavender plants that filled the farm. Imagine opening your windows on a summer morning and welcoming in that wonderful scent! I’ve added 3 lavender plants to my garden and…with any luck…maybe I can do exactly that!

Meanwhile, somewhere in Lancaster County, Pa. sits this beautiful farmhouse. I can’t begin to tell you where it is because I have no idea. I shot this image on one of those days when I was meandering along the back roads and enjoying the countryside. I do remember that storms were expected and I was hoping for some moody skies to photograph, but that never happened. I had to settle for a touch of blue sky with some wispy clouds floating above the farmland.
