Photo of The Day #7 : A Day At The Pond

 This picture was taken at Trap Pond State Park in Delaware.  It happened to be just a beautiful day and I had to get a shot of the pond! 

"Trap Pond State Park retains a part of the swamp's original beauty and mystery, and features the northernmost natural stand of baldcypress trees in the United States. The pond was created in the late 1700s to power a sawmill during the harvest of large baldcypress from the area. The Federal Government later purchased the pond and surrounding farmland during the 1930s and the Civilian Conservation Corps began to develop the area for recreation. Trap Pond became one of Delaware's first state parks in 1951."  -http://www.destateparks.com/park/trap-pond/index.asp

Photo of The Day #6 : Dog At The Beach

Sorry that I haven't posted a photo of the day for a while... It has been a tough week and I have not been able to take the time to post one. But this photo is from a day in Ocean City, Maryland.  I was sitting on the beach and this friendly and beautiful dog came up to greet me!  His owner was very nice and we had a good conversation, If you happen to be the owner of this dog and you are reading this please use the Contact Me section and send me an E-Mail!  I will have more photos this week and maybe something a little extra to make up for some missed time.

Photo of The Day #5 : Across the Airport

This picture was taken across the BWI airport in Maryland.  The spot that we were in had airplanes flying right over our heads every two minutes!  Yet we decided that It would be best to leave when we found no trespassing signs along with shotgun shells laying on the ground!

Photo of The Day #4 : Indian on train tracks

This photo was taken on a day trip at Patapsco Valley Park.  I walked up to the train tracks off of the trail and I saw this man standing here.  I asked him if I could take this picture. He smiled and said yes.

Recreational opportunities include hiking, fishing, camping, canoeing, horseback and mountain bike trails, as well as picnicking for individuals or large groups in the park’s many popular pavilions

Photo of The Day #2 : Glenn Dale Hospital

So for today's photo of the day Is a picture from the Abandoned Glenn Dale Hospital in Maryland. 

This is one of the more interesting places that I have been in my life and even with the photos I think it is hard to explain the creepiness of this place!

  

Glenn Dale Hospital was a tuberculosis sanitarium in Glenn Dale, Maryland in the United States.

 It closed down in 1982 and is now littered by trash and graffiti from vandals.

 Due to the amount of vandals the area is very heavily guarded by police to prevent people from entering the building. (trust me on that one)

So personally I felt that this is something that everyone should be allowed to see without worrying about the risk. So "I" managed to find a way into the building to take some pictures for everyone to see!

Once inside the building I was filled with a feeling of fear (I am not gonna lie about this one).  I entered through the basement which according to Wiki.

The basements of the hospital buildings are extremely dangerous. Large pieces of rusty, sharp metal and debris hang from the ceiling. Each hospital basement has its own morgue.

Almost the entire building was quite dark except for little amounts of light sneaking in from the windows giving everything a more creepy feeling!

So this entire gallery I made HDR to allow you to see the details on the inside! I hope you enjoy an inside look! And if anyone asks... (It was not me in there).

Starting Picture a Day!

So starting today I will be posting a new picture on my blog every day!  

Today's picture comes from Whitehaven Maryland. 

"In 1995, the 19th century Whitehaven Hotel was saved from the wrecking ball through the cooperative efforts of local residents, the Maryland Historic trust and by those captivated by its charming location in a riverfront Eastern Shore village at the Whitehaven ferry, minutes from the Chesapeake Bay. The Hotel, now one of the last of its kind, provided lodging for travelers crossing the Wicomico by horse to Quantico, Salisbury and Princess Anne and by steamship to ports as far as Baltimore.
