I spent a good deal of Thursday at the High Point City Lake Park, where I had the good fortune to meet to of the park employees. Shawn, who like me loves nature photography, enjoys taking pictures during his lunch break. He graciously showed me some of his work, which is located at http://shawnrmcentee.smugmug.com/. Wow, it is some phenomenal photography, and work like that is something I aspire to do. Gary was the other employee who gave me some great information about the environmental center off of Penny Rd. He also told me about the fall foilage tour, which I was fortunate enough to get a seat in. I found out it is on the pontoon boat and goes all around the lake. There may still be some seats left on the 2pm tour, which is Saturday, November 6th, so call (336) 883- 3498 to see. At $4 for a 45 minute boat tour, it is less than the cost of a movie, to get up close and personal with nature. Bring your camera and I hope to see you there.
With that said, it was a cold dreary day at the park but I had a great time walking around and taking pictures. I think I was one of only about 4 people other than the employees who was enjoying the park despite the weather. I had a couple that I think might rate being put on the blog. Here they are.
