More Scenes from Long Island: Monday Morning 1/19/09

Some of these were taken right in my yard, the tree is outside my kitchen window. Scott says that it has to come down, or it might come down on its own. It is a haven for a few squirrels this winter, every so often we see them climbing in and out of the hole. The second picture was taken of woods in back of a car dealership, I positioned the camera so that the lot and building wasn't in the frame. The third is a real closeup of a branch on a tree outside of the 7-11. The tree isn't very tall, it is kind of scranny, but the way the snow was just plopped on the branches intrigued me. The blue background is a car. The stop sign is at my corner, I shot the picture from indoors, at the front window of my house. The last one, Cliff may know the technical term for the contraption. I call it a large wheeled sprinkler. It was shot on our ride to the MRI, out on the eastern end of Long Island, at a sod farm in Riverhead. I just loved the way that the field looked so startk and the contraption was just there. Enjoy!

Nicely done photo's Miki. The sprinkler just as well be called that. I know it's self propelled but I don't know the name either.
You live in a beautiful part of the world.
