Afternoon Hikes

A group of my friends decided that monthly we were going to take on a new park to hike. It's not only a great way to exercise; but we have a wonderful time hanging out together and of course, catching what we see on film(well digital).

This month we chose to explore Bluff Point, Groton, CT

Bella & Kris were walking down a path when Jacob pointed out he saw a chipmunk. This time of year everything is basically the color of brown, so to see this little fella you really had to focus. I didn't think he would stay still long enough for me to focus and capture this image. But it looks like we have a winner! Isn't he adorable?


My small Canon Powershot SX30 IS has loads of fun functions. As you see here above, the fish-eye function causes the fish-eye effect. Very fun to play with.


While everyone was climbing this gigantic boulder I stood from below and was able to capture this shot. The boulder had split in half and a tree limb was wedged between it. When your in nature, take a moment to look at the beauty around you in different angles. Crazy what you may see.


The Boys: had to run to the top and back down. Kris wanted to know if Jacob was the winner. They weren't racing, so they say.


Can't wait till we choose the next location for Aprils Hike! Keep your eyes open!
