A selection of some nature and some not so nature pics that I have taken over the past year. All photos were taken by me and myself only.
This first picture is of an CSX coal train climbing the grade at Cotton Hill, West Virginia after a snow squall had passed through earlier in the
morning on this cold February day in 2012.
A quiet night at the Amtrak station in Charleston, West Virginia as the moon is high in the sky just after sunset.
Early morning in the hills and valleys of West Virginia. This as a late May 2012 sunrise crests over the mountaintop overlooking Belle and Marmet,
West Virginia.
Taken in mid January 2013, this photo really shows the power of a swift moving current as the Kanawha River was close to flood stage after snow melt
from a recent storm.
Taken on February 23, 2013. A CSX container train is seen passing through the Greenbrier River Valley close to Alderson, West Virginia after a
snowstorm hit the area earlier that morning.
An eastbound train slowly makes its way up to Allegheny Summit just after a snowstorm dropped over a foot of snow on much of the area between White
Sulfur Springs, West Virginia and Covington, Virginia.
It is amazing as to what you will find off of the beaten path if you are not looking for it. A small spring trickles down of the hillside along a West
Virginia back road.
A face is seen in the clouds between rounds of spotty thunderstorms. This as the last rays of sunlight cast an eerie glow around the face and the
cloud formation.
A bird walks among the grass as it looks for its next meal.
In the late afternoon light a couple of days ago. A lone beam of sunlight pierces through the thick cloud cover as it tries to peak out from behind
the clouds on what would turn out to be a stormy evening.
In the last rays of light, the sun sets over the town of Saint Albans, West Virginia on another late Spring day..
