The Washington Monument seen from the WWII Memorial and fountains.

Trip to D.C. resulted in some pretty decent pictures.

Took this picture at a park in the fall. One of my favorites of Abby.

My 8 year old at the local fall festival. A nice candid shot. I was actually trying to get her to pose and cheese real big for me when she gave me this look and it turned out nice I think.

A mountain stream my brother and I found on an early morning hike around Clingman’s Dome.

A historic church in Cades Cove, Smoky Mountain National Park, Tennessee. Abby came in, sat down and started looking out the window and I grabbed some shots of her — a little girl in a church of another time.

The bottom half of Laurel Falls in the Smoky Mountain National Park, Tennessee. Beautiful and serene.

All three of the ladies in my house are redheads. Caroline has the brightest red hair. I used a new technique I learned from The Sassy Shutterbug of adding a Gaussian blur on a soft or overly layer to accent Caroline’s red hair as she went down the slide. This is the same image I presented earlier in B+W.

Found this old truck inside a restaurant at Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom during the KY State Fair. I used a modified Cold Tone preset from Lightroom. I’ve been wanting to try this for a while. I got the idea from Rick Scheibner here. I still like his better.
