One of the many expansive views from the grounds of Harkness Memorial State Park I visited Sunday. There are more than 200 acres all leading to the Long Island Sound. You can see the water in the background and in the far reaches of the horizon, you'll notice a long, thin slightly darker island. That's part of Long Island, New York, only about 15-20 miles away as the crow flies. That's a kite in the sky, not a UFO or a spot on the lens... There were several kites being flown all afternoon.

it's nice and peaceful, isn't it! i think all of my photos look better when you click on them to make them larger! : )
ReplyDeletePlease don't ever click on me! I'm large enough, thanks
ReplyDeleteMy brother is on the other side of the Sound. Probably a lot further down. Bayside/Douglaston
Anyway, I always enjoy your photos - you make the most of your megapixels.
What we could see from Waterford is probably the far end of Long Island, Montauk. When I was a kid my dad would take us all on the boat and go to Montauk and Orient Point for the day. I hated it, I hate boats, lol. It was always great going over and very choppy on the way home. We'd eat at a marina or yacht club and then the waves on the way back would get to me... i could never have been a sailor!
ReplyDeleteMy might be seeing the Wading River-Mattituck area, the former is a really nice place and pleasant. Taxes aren't that crazy compared to the rest of the empire.
