Winter Evening Reflection

Mystic, CT

Winter has come early to Connecticut, as well as some other places across the US.  So far we've been spared the snow and ice of the first winter storms of the season, but the temperature has been well below normal this past week and we're expecting a bad storm this weekend.  The early setting sun behind these evening clouds made for this rather chilly reflection.  I'm linking this to Weekend Reflections where you can find many more reflections, hopefully much warmer than this one.  Have a nice weekend and thanks for looking.

Warning

East Hartford

Fellow Connecticut Blogger, Jack, who writes the blog "Naples and Hartford in Season" commented on the photo I posted yesterday of downtown Hartford.  Since he's very familiar with the Hartford area,  he knew exactly from where I took that picture.  He also knows what I learned from this sign.  It's a good thing I didn't park there too long......

Rentshcler Field

East Hartford, CT

I actually had to do some work during the game, so I didn't want to bring in my D90.  I'm sure I could've produced this image with the D90, a good tripod and much post processing, stitching and image editing afterwards.  But, as they say, the best camera in the world, is the one you have with you, so this image was taken with my iPhone 4s using the pano feature of the camera.  Not too bad, if I do say so.

Game Day

East Hartford, CT

I'm not a big fan of UCONN football, but I did attend their last game of the season yesterday.  Temperatures didn't get out of the 30's during the game.  That's real football weather.  Although UCONN had a disappointing 3-9 season, they did end on a high note, winning their last 3 games, including yesterday's 45-10 win over the Memphis Tigers.
