Starting to feel creative once again. I have definitely been enjoying some different avenues of expression the last few days.In the next coming month I will have some diverse photographic subjects.

Next Week I am planning to hike part of the 70mi. Laurel Highlands Trail - hopefully I will get some nice PA scenery capture for eveyone from Lynn Run State Park, Ohiopyle State Park, and points in between.Info on the trail is available at: [link]

In a few weeks and there after, I will be focusing on railways and abandoned industry buildings, notably the old Steel Mill buildings still left in SW Pennsylvania. Of particular interest will be the Allegheny Portage Railroad, which included the first railroad tunnel in the United States, and Horseshoe Curve on the old PRR Line. [link] and [link])

July 13-19, I will be focusing on the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix - the nation's largest vintage sports car race and the only one run on city streets! This year's feature marque is my favorite, BMW. So be prepared for some vintage auto love ...... now that doesn't sound right at all. You can visit the PVGP site here: [link] Also expect some interesting shots of Pittsburgh's architecture, skyline, and Street Life.

Life outside Washington DC is anything but boring......
