I have on occasion been on the road and thought I’d share some photos of what I saw along the way. Photos by me, though on rare occasions I might accidentally post one taken by a family member but that got on my phone. #Photography

Tall freestanding roadside sign displaying the RadioShack name and logo above a red "VIDEO MART" panel, standing in a mostly empty parking lot with one parked car, trees and small buildings under a clear blue sky.
Waves crash against a jagged sea stack, sending towering white spray onto a sandy shore with a lone dark log in the foreground and a clear blue sky overhead.
Passionflower center showing radial blue-and-white filaments and prominent purple styles with speckled green-yellow stamens topped by orange anthers.
Detailed diorama of a miniature railroad crossing steep, layered rock canyons over a turquoise river, with multiple trestle and steel bridges carrying freight trains through grassy plateaus, tunnels, and dramatic cliffs.
Railroad tracks curving through a pitch-black tunnel toward a bright exit, the rails glinting in the distant light.
Dark tunnel with a thin curved ribbon of pale light leading to a distant bright light, and a mossy rock wall faintly illuminated on the right.
Upturned tree roots form a natural arch and hollow tunnel at the base of a fallen trunk in a lush, fern-filled forest.
An overgrown asphalt path with a single crack where clumps of grass sprout in a repeating zigzag pattern, framed by dense green trees receding into the distance.
Dense temperate rainforest undergrowth with bright green ferns and young shrubs in the foreground, moss-draped trees and a shadowed fallen log with young trees growing out of it, and dappled sunlight filtering through the canopy.
A raven stands on a roof with a blue sky behind them
A bee crawls on a sunflower
A bee flies towards a sunflower
The water crashes down for three quarters of the image and the edge of the river is visible on the left side.
A very long pier that juts out into the water with a blue sky above.
Snow-patched mountain peak rising above a dense evergreen forest, framed by bright green deciduous trees against a clear blue sky to convey a crisp, scenic summer mountain landscape.
Young buck standing on curved railroad tracks through a dense green forest, pausing and looking toward the camera as the rails wind into the trees.
Narrow dirt road with a moss-covered center track leading through a dense, green forest of tall pine trees and ferns.
a crumbling stone wall that kind of does look like it could be a ruined outer wall of a castle. It is a night shot lit only by a flash light so the way is mostly in shadow with the grass in front also lit up.
the NJ 9/11 memorial is two 30 foot tall walls of stainless steel. in front of the two wall (that look like two towers from this viewing angle) are the remnants of steel beams from the World Trade Center.
an image of lower Manhattan at night as seen from the Hudson River. On the other side of the river is a large white sculpture of a female head and a hand in front of it with one finger to its lips as if to shush New York.
An old wood small building with no paint stain ands alone by a road.
a portrait shot of some green trees, with some branches of trees growing out a 60 to 90 degree angles so it looks like there is a tree growing very horizontally somewhere off screen.
The King’s Street Train Station at night. An old two story brick station with a gorgeous old clock tower at its back. Behind the building is a modern 20 story hotel.
A small house with an entrance way in front of the door covered in roses
An out of focus picture of some roses in front of a window that you can look through and see the door open on the other side
A small building consisting of a men’s and a women’s toilet has a very large fly sculpture on its roof.
A train crosses a trestle under a blue sky.
An aquamarine colored lake sits between green and brown mountains.
A lot of people walking down the street in a somewhat loose interpretation of a parade. Many with flags or patriotic colors and some dressed as trees or bushes or even a bee.
A view of green hills covered in pine trees
A picture of a small downtown: small storefronts with cars parked along the side.
A close up of the crocosmia flower. It is red individual blooms that form a triangle that faces downwards with the blooming starting at the top and moving its way down, so the bottom of the triangle is made up of buds that are many days away from blooming.
A close up of the honeysuckle flower next to 6 pink pod-like strands that will open up into flowers shortly
A close up of a honeysuckle flower. Some have bloomed others are in red pods that are about to split open.
A picture in the deep woods with a thick brown truck in the foreground and roaring river in the background
A train crossing a trestle

A closeup of the spider webs on an old early 20th century fan.
A lush green forest of moss covered pines and fern covered ground.
An old stone building sits atop of a hill with snow on the ground. In the background, down the hill are trees with a small town somewhat visible in the far distance.
an old red fishing boat at a dock. Behind it is a 4 mast sailing ship. Behind that is a massive modern Cruise ship, turning at a slight angle away from the ships.
baby geese and a goose walk along the curb after having crosses the road.
An extreme close up of a Tiger Lily bloom. Orange red in yellow stripped petals fill the image.
a few though the woods at a distant hillside. The photo is from the late fall so the trees have leaves of a deep red and brown.
A sunset behind some green trees.
a curved road on a hill in the foreground and the roofs of homes in the background behind the road
A greenish bronze sculpture that is curved and has holes in the middle so it look like a figure eight in what is cut out.
Train tracks curve into the distance with an overcast sky and trees along the side, some just beginning to show the colors of early fall.
A large stone curving arch that says "Home of the square deal"
