Walking around the ballpark...

Hey all,

Hope your week is going good so far. These are some more photos from the ballgame Wyatt and I went to on Sunday.

The first photo is Wyatt walking along the path behind the outfield. Home Depot was there doing a thing for the kids where they could build their own clubhouse with a wooden kit they had. Wyatt was a little too young, but as we were walking, I was stopped by one of the Home Depot ladies who said she thought Wyatt was the cutest little boy she had seen so far and even though he could not do a kit, she wanted to give him his own Home Depot Apron with his name on it. As you can tell, It was twice the size of him, but he loved it.


The second photo, is a side view of Wyatt taken at the playground they have at the park. I'm not really sure why, but my flash came on when I was taking the photo and pretty much washed out the entire background with white. So I cropped as much down as I could and converted to Black and White. If anyone has any suggestions on what I could have done different to change the photo, Please feel free to share them. I am here to learn..


Have a great week everyone!

Here comes the heat...

 

 

Hey all,

Hope you all had a great weekend. These photos were taken yesterday at the Lancaster Barnstormers game. It was a great day as I had Wyatt with me and he did pretty well. He did not take too kind to Cylo, the mascot of the barnstormers, but he did pretty well and was very tired by the time we left.

The Barnstormers won by the way, beating the Southern Maryland BlueCrab 5 to 1

If you ever get the chance to attend a game at Clipper Stadium. It is a beautifull ballpark, easy to get in and out of and compared to other ballparks I've been to, The prices for food and drink are not that bad.

Have a great Monday!!

Field Communications...

Hey all,

TGIF!! This will be brief as I only got 4 hours sleep and just got home from work. I was not sure what to post today. By the way, Sorry I logged onto Skywatch so late, I thought I could do it in the AM and when you could sign on, I was already at work. I am on now, so please feel free to leave any comments on any photos.


Anyhow, these two photos were taken at a terrorism drill earlier in the summer. They are the field communication units from our neighboring counties that surround Lancaster. The first one is the Derry Township Police FCU from Hershey, Dauphin County and the second one is the York Mobile Command Unit from the York 9-1-1 Center In York County. They were gracious enough to come over and assist our Field Communications Unit during this operation.


Allright folks, time to hit the rack. Have a great weekend! Hopefully we won't get flooded out by Hanna as We were planning to go to a baseball game Saturday night. That is up in the air right now.

Stay Safe and thanks for visitng my blog..

Skywatch....

Good Morning,

Yes it's that time of week again. This week's photos are of the Philadelphia Skyline. Heading to a Phillies game on a bus trip, I was going over my camera and looked over and saw the skyline with the blimp flying overhead and close to one of the high rise buildings. So I decided to start shooting, again forgive me for the quality of photos. I was in a bus doing 65 on I95. I have to be honest and admit I did do a double take as It looked at one point the blimp struck the building. As you can see, it did not.

Hope you all have a great week!

Feel free to leave any comments and thanks for stopping by!

Reported House on fire....

Hey all,

Todays image is of Lancaster City Bureau Of Fire Truck 2. They were assisting on a reported house fire my department had last night. As it turned out, it was an overheated motor in a dishwasher.

Hope your all having a great week. If you want to see some really excellant fire photos, Go to Brian Bastinelli's blog or his other website, www.fire-ground.com as he has some excellant ones from a recent job Harrisburg City Fire had the other day..

The evil mastermind...

 

Hey all,

Well, today I honestly had no idea what I was going to post. So I was looking though my online albums and decided to post this shot of my nephew. This photo was taken inside Chuck E Cheese Pizza. He was playing somekind of haunted house game. The game cost a $1.25 to play. I'm sorry, bring back pac man and donkey kong when you could play them for a quarter.

Anyhoo, this particular shot reminded me of a movie, however I cannot place the name of it.

That is all I have for today.

Stay Safe everyone,

Woody

Back to Harrisburg...

 

Hey all,

Hope you are all enjoying the holiday!. I know I am, I do have to work tonight on OT but it's only for four hours and at triple time. I'm not complaning.

Today's photo I spent about 30 minutes trying to recreate it. If you go to Brad Myers Blog and click on Harrisburg. There is a shot very similar to this one. I really liked that shot and when I was up in Harrisburg a few weeks ago. I took this photo from about the same spot and worked it up in photoshop to try and come as close as I could to it. It's not quite where I want it, but I think it looks pretty good overall.

This photo was taken at the top of the Capital Steps looking west towards the river.

Hope you all have a great week.

Stay Safe,


Woody
