Well, my last trip home to New York has resulted in a series of images of this water tower, and the beach. I have a couple more of the shore to post, but for now, the water tower wins the draw. My parents still live in the house I grew up in, so going home is always a wonderful experience. Jones Beach State Park is a big part of my growing up years, and, I will never tire of the shore and this cool structure. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
Back to Jones Beach State Park for this post. This is part of a series of images were taken back in January on a rather cold and dull day, so it has been fun working with the pictures to try and find some detail and perspective. I love the shore when it is like this…quiet…deserted…salty air…loud, winter surf…time speeds away and slows down all at once…if that makes sense…..
I wonder what the tree did say to the light… any thoughts?
Another shot of this pretty cool piece of architecture located at Jones Beach State Park on the southern shores of Long Island.
And just before you head out to enjoy your weekend, another shot of the Jones Beach Water Tower. I have a few more images coming from my trip back home this past January. The Art Deco style of this tower (this 84 year old beauty is an actual functioning water tower) is representative of the bath houses and other structures in this beautiful state park.
Taken a couple of years ago when I had the opportunity to visit the Holy Land. My journey through Israel was one of spiritual and life changing significance for me. Hope you enjoy.
Living in the plains of the Midwest does have its benefits. I do miss the Atlantic Ocean on the south shores of Long Island… the mountains of upstate New York… but I have come to appreciate the many beautiful horizons of our town: Minooka.
In complete defiance of the Midwest winter that cannot be stopped, here is a moment taken at Jones Beach. Here is a little bit of what I remember about my favorite place…
Another shot of this beautiful location in Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico.
