I went back out with my new 500mm zoom lens this evening. The full moon was yesterday but the weather was lousy here so I didn't get a chance to take pictures. Today was really windy but I managed to get some decent shots. I think this one is my favorite:

The Moon
I bought a new lens for my camera this week. I decided to splurge on a 500mm zoom lens. It's huge! It came today and it was perfect timing because the moon was almost full. Here's how the moon looks through a 500mm zoom lens:

2014 Photo Calendars
I enjoy sharing my photos in many different ways. One of those ways is through yearly calendars. Each year, I make a 5x7 calendar with 13 different 4x6 photos. Each month has its own actual photograph. Below are the photos from the brand new 2014 calendar. I sell these through my web site, so if you're interested, you can go to www.faithproductionsofcumberland.com/onlinestore.php to order the calendars. You can order through PayPal and if you don't have a PayPal account you can use a credit card through PayPal without needing an account.
Here are the photos for 2014 (actual photos in the calendars will not have the watermark on them):




Cover, January, March, April, November: Rocky Gap State Park
May: Swallowtails at Shad Landing State Park, Snow Hill, MD
July: Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, Cambridge, MD
August: View from Sherwood's Landing, Inn at Perry Point, St. Michaels, MD
September: Martins Mountain, Allegany County, MD
October: Casselman River Bridge State Park, Garrett County, MD
(This formatting on Blogger is not cooperating and I couldn't get the titles to match up with the photos. The winter photo with the boat house is January, then the bird is February, and so on.)

Rocky Gap State Park--One last autumn trip
I took one last trip out to Rocky Gap State Park to take fall foliage photos. The colors were hit and miss this year but it is still a beautiful place. Here are a few of my photos from last week:

Another visit to Rocky Gap State Park
A few weeks ago I posted some early fall foliage photos from Rocky Gap State Park. Well, I went back there after work yesterday to see how the foliage looked. The colors really weren't too exciting this year but Rocky Gap is beautiful no matter what. Here are a few late afternoon photos.

Beautiful Moon
It's been a while since I posted anything. Sorry about that. It was nice and clear tonight for some moon viewing. Here are a couple photos of the moon rising over the mountain.

Autumn in Garrett County, MD
I took a drive out to Garrett County, MD last week but the weather wasn't too cooperative. On my way home, the sun did come out when I was at the Casselman River Bridge State Park. They recently finished some repairs to the bridge and I must say it looks mighty fine.
