Johnny Cache

Our first geocaching trackable!

The ring!

Bonus: Creepy Ring in the Woods

Hmm, children's game or crazy cult ring?  You decide:

I'm in it for the cache $$

This guy was tricky:

Thankfully we had help from a feline friend:

Urban Decay

While walking through the park we came across a bunch of garbage / urban decay / junk:

The best by far (imo) was the typewriter, in pretty good shape considering its location:

Nature in New Jersey!?

So maybe my conception of New Jersey wasn't completely correct.  I guess 'Garden State' should have tipped me off...

 There was a nano cache under the bench in the back :)

Weekend in New Jersey - Mount Laurel - Remote Controlled Boat Races

After Beck and I attended a wonderful Bar Mitzvah, we went around the area and did some geocaching.  The parks in this area were very pretty and cache-full.  This is the start of four part post on the things we came across in the park:

We got lucky and saw a few guys having a remote controlled boat race:

Winery

Just a few pics from a winery in VA

Hopefully a panorama to come in the future!  Gotta do some stitching!

Metal

Title gives it away.  Shot with 300mm Sigma in central PA.

I love the sharpness of the detail in this one

Oldies but Goodies

I haven't taken any new pictures this week but thought it might be interesting to go back through some older pictures that I've taken and had previously put into my Flickr Favorites Set.  Interesting to see my photographic development, imho :)

The whole set can be found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/danflynn/sets/72157602437164531/

These are just a few:

Frogs!

Got some pictures of little frogs while on a trip visiting a friend outside of Harrisburg!
Comment appreciated!  I liked these.  Mostly shot with my 300mm that I don't usually use, but may be taking out more often after these came out :)

Great time!
