I always walk by these flowers when I'm out with my daughter around the neighborhood, so the other day I decided to take advantage of the even lighting to grab some photos of them before they are gone. The colors really wow me and I think my extension tubes did a good job of capturing the stunning detail.
Harper's Ferry is one of my favorite places to visit. I was in a rush to grab dinner before everything shut down the last time I was there, so I wasn't able to grab very many sunset shots. I went back out this weekend to get a few more.
Although I couldn't make it up to the top of Maryland Heights for the shot that I really wanted (that one will have to wait), I was able to capture some of the incredible light hitting the area as the sun went down.
This is another glance at the patch of Pickett's charge. A different picture emerges today in the area where so much metal flew through the air long ago.
