Fall at the park…………
Early in my life I spent lived 15+ years in Meriden CT. Besides their library the one thing that I took considerable advantage of, and still do to this day, is Hubbard Park. It’s a beautiful sprawling park at with Castle Craig looking down upon it from atop the mountain. It’s visited by individuals, groups and families all week long. It was a real gift bestowed upon the City of Meriden by Mr. Hubbard back in the day. If you were to visit the park and take the approx. 1.5 mile road that leads up to Castle Craig one of the first vista’s you’ll pass is the Meriden Reservoir on…

It’s fall at the castle.
I set up my tripod on the sidewalk at the south end of Hubbard Park’s pond aimed at the Castle waiting for the light.

A pumpkin welcomes visitor to this rust Kent CT barn.
With fall in the air, and Halloween around the corner, Cheryl was excited not only to see Old Glory adorn the entrance of this rustic barn but a bright beautiful pumpkin sitting at the stoop as well. Golden leaves adorned the landscape, and a colorful sky shown through, this barn made quite an impact on us in the lovely town of Kent CT. The homeowners house, (out of sight to the right), had a sign that said 1835. I don’t know when the barn was actually constructed. Photographed with a Sony A7RII, 42.4 mb, mirrorless camera and a Sony 24-120 zoom lens at 39mm. Aperture Priority, F8, 1/320th, ISO 1000.…
