Solar Eclipse 2017 - Beginning to End I really had doubts that this one was going to work out! The forecast was calling for a 60% chance of thunderstorms in Lancaster, PA. I had some trouble with thick clouds in the beginning but in the end - it all worked out. Each photo was made with a Canon 70D and a Canon 17-40 mm f/4L lens @ 36 mm. (1/160 sec, ISO 200, Baader Solar Filter, f/7.1)

The Washington Boro Society for Susquehanna River Heritage is a non-profit organization located in the borough of Washington Boro, Pennsylvania. The society was established in 2002 with a mission to preserve and promote the natural, cultural, and historical heritage of the Susquehanna River and the surrounding area.

The society owns and operates a museum called the Zimmerman Center for Heritage, which was named after John Zimmerman, a local farmer who was instrumental in preserving the Susquehanna River. The museum features exhibits on the history of the Susquehanna River, the Native American tribes that lived in the area, and the role of the river in the development of the region's transportation and industry.

In addition to the museum, the society offers educational programs and events for the public, including guided hikes, lectures, and workshops on topics related to the Susquehanna River and its heritage. The society also works with local schools to provide educational programming for students of all ages.

The Washington Boro Society for Susquehanna River Heritage is committed to preserving the natural and cultural heritage of the Susquehanna River for future generations to enjoy. Through its museum, educational programs, and community outreach, the society strives to raise awareness about the importance of the river and its role in shaping the history and culture of the region.

The Meteor and the Flower Moon LPOD on June 7, 2013 -- lpod.wikispaces.com/June+7%2C+2013 ( <a href="http://lpod.wikispaces.com/June+7,+2013" rel="noreferrer nofollow">lpod.wikispaces.com/June+7,+2013</a> ) A bright meteor along with the full "flower" moon are seen illuminating the Lancaster, PA countryside. The image was made of 415 twenty second exposures (about 2.5 hours). Each image was taken with a Canon T2i (f/5.0 with a Sigma 10-20 mm lens @ 14 mm / ISO 400) and stacked using StarStax. This must have been some meteor! I unfortunately must have been looking away but at least it was captured in the image.
The Fog Bank across the Stream A fog bank is seen engulfing a flowing stream in Lancaster, PA. Two stop (-2, 0, +2) HDR processing was done using Photomatix and light processing in Photoshop Elements. I originally wanted to photograph the thin crescent moon and Venus pairing; however, the clouds and fog had other plans! Despite missing the moon, I really like the way the photo turned out. Venus can be seen to the left of the tree in the middle of the photograph.
