A couple shots from Boathouse Row and the Philadelphia Water Works last night. (My first attempt at stacking.)

    I think you did a great job of stacking. I especially like the third shot, but the first two aren't bad at all either.

    what did you "stack"? I am a little confused by this. I like the shots, #3 is my favorite.

    Very nice Fred. We moved from the Philly area (Cherry Hill, NJ) a couple of years ago and I miss it.

    We were back in town a few weeks ago and walked up past Boathouse Row. I need to find another excuse to go back for a while.

    My first attempt at stacking
    Wow, if this is your first attempt, I shudder to think of what your shots will look like when you become an expert at stacking!!!!!

    Really nice stuff. #1 and #2 (especially #2) are great. I love the water in #3 but the lights from I-76 are a little strong. Neat clouds too.

    I'm just down the road from you in Lancaster county!

    I knew, of course, that trees and plants had roots, stems, bark, branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself.

    Very nice series, Fred. I think you just inspired me to take a trip there this coming weekend (taking we don't get this snowstorm they're predicting on Friday).
