Veterans Day...




Hey Everyone...

Because of what today is, I thought this would be an appropriate photo. If you know someone in the military, make sure you thank them for their service. Whether you agree with the war or not, it's because of the brave men and women who are currently serving that we continue to have our freedoms that we do today.

To all the men and women who have served, past and present, THANK YOU!

This photo was taken at the Millersville Parade two weeks ago.

Have a great day everyone!

Hope everyone had a great weekend..

Glow in the sky...








Hey everyone,

These photos were taken last weekend just below Quarryville. I heard the Quarryville Fire Department and mutual aide units get dispatched for a barn fire. So I turned the scanner and heard the additional of two barns well involved. The responding fire chief reported he could see it from a few miles away. I figured my station would go, so I slowly headed down that way. We got dispatched to relocate to Quarryville's station and then got pulled into the scene to establish a water supply.

I was not too happy with how these photos turned out. I did shoot almost all of them manuel and no matter what I did or what settings I changed, nothing seemed to work for me. Oh well, I'll just have to keep practicing...


Have a great weekend everyone!!!

Skywatch...






Hey everyone,

Happy Skywatch!!

I'm changing it up abit. These two photos were taken from the recent airport drill I photographed. The first photograph is the men from Cumberland County Engine 45 on a access road at the airport. If you look straight down the roadway, that is Sarah Palins plane sitting there. If you look straight up about the middle of the photo, you see an aircraft flying towards where we are standing. The second photo is of that aircraft flying overhead. It is a USAF C17 Cargo Plane (Thanks to Sparky for the info on the plane)

The aircraft flew overhead several times, so I'm not exactly sure what they were doing in the area.

Have a great week everyone!!

Wild West...





Hey everyone,

Sticking with this weeks theme. This is a old Wells Fargo wagon that was in the parade. To be honest, I really don't know alot about it. I thought it was pretty cool to photograph so I did.

Hope your week is going well!

Nothing like a MACK...




Hey everyone,

Hope your week is going well so far. This is again from the Millersville Parade that was held this past weekend. Can you tell I love Mack trucks?? This beautifull bulldog is transporting the Rajah Temple String Band down George Street which is the main drag through Millersville.

I have to tell you though, some people are just rude. The first shot I was getting ready to take of the truck. Someone not involved with the parade just walking along the route, stops and stands right in front of me blowing the first shot I had, but I was able to lean out around the person and get this shot. Once the person saw what I was doing, they moved. People have no manners..


Have a great day!

Coco Visits Millersville...




Hey everyone,

This week I will be doing a few photos from the annual Millersville Community Parade. I decided to lead off with this photo for my friend, Bradley Myers as he is a diehard Hershey Bears fan. This is the famous Coco the bear, the Hershey Bears Mascot riding in the jumpseat of Millersville Fire Company Engine 6-5-2.

It was a good day for a parade. little chilly but it was fun overall.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
