Lake Papaiannia - The Storm
In pursuit of the photo of the day I took a quick detour on the way home this afternoon. With The Daily Shoot assignment in mind for today's shot I headed over to Lake Papaiannia Park in search of a leading trail.
As I spent a few minutes at the park I noticed a storm just rolling right in from the northwest, with quick moving clouds that were just rushing right in.
The reflection on this little lake caught my eye... and despite the impending storm the water was pretty calm.
Within feet of where I stood was the signs of warmer, brighter summer days
A lakeside table for a picnic lunch or late afternoon snack,
A bench to relax and take in the view of the lake and it's surroundings. There is a trail around the lake that is used frequently by the town residents and leashed dogs on their daily walks. Maddox has had fun walking the trail in the past, it time to take him back!

Memorial Day Weekend
The long weekend brought with it the opportunity to get outside and explore with camera in hand. Only this time I made sure to check the settings, those pictures from Mother's Day would have been fantastic if I'd reset the camera from the previous shoot which was in a theater with virtually no light (and NO FLASH ALLOWED). Well guess every newbie learns that lesson sooner or later.
Saturday afternoon found me at Lake Papaianni in Edison, NJ. There were a few things I found interesting in this very small park with a pond.
A little late in the season, but this flower was hanging in there
A couple of boys were also exploring
A couple of fishermen had some high hopes
And Maddox certainly was excited to be out about
Unfortunately he just gets too excited so we have to keep him on a lease. He's very friendly and would just run off to Meet and Greet everyone within his sights.
There were a couple of mallards, including this one
Tons of geese,
including a band of charging goselings
They all finally calmed down to follow Mom and Dad back to the pond
We finished the trip with one very tired Maddox in our car
A good time was had by all!
