Unintentional Hiatus

I can't believe I haven't posted anything in three years!  It's not that I've stopped taking pictures, because I haven't.  I guess I needed a break from any kind of writing, in general.

On and off I've thought about posting something, maybe combining the two blogs I have to make it easier, which I still might do.  Not sure if there's an easy way to go about it, or if I have to do it manually.  *sigh*

Anyway, I've recently purchased a new DSLR.  It's a Canon Rebel T3i.  I am so in love with my PowerShot that I took the leap away from my Sony.  I did find a good home for my Sony: I gave it to my mom.  :D

Since I received the Canon, I've been itching to get out there and play around with it.  This afternoon after dinner, my husband and I drove up to St. John's Church, up in Cold Spring Harbor.  It's kind of in the back of the Fish Hatchery, kind of hidden.  Here's a picture of the actual church:

I'm not sure if it looks familiar to any of you, but it's the church from the movie In and Out.  In looking for a picture or a link to the scene, I found this cool blog with all the info I wanted to share.  It's called Clyde's Guides & Other Stuff.  It's been renovated in the last year or so, but it's mostly the same on the outside.

We were looking for the preserve that's in the area, but we parked in the wrong place.  If we would have parked above the church, we would've found it.  In looking for it, we took a walk around the church by the water.  That's where I took a picture of this guy pictured above.

I'd like to do a 52 week photo project and post some pictures here.  This means that I'll have to actually post at least once a week, so hopefully I can keep up with it.  As of now I'm researching themes to photograph every week, so I hope to start soon.
