South End Cemetery with Gardiner Wind Mill in background

Stopped in to get a photograph of the Gardiner Mill wind mill. Taking a walk through the cemetery looking for a good vantage point I came across the Gardiner family memorials. Lion Gardiner was a colonist engineer sent to Connecticut to build a fort after which he purchased the Island that bears his name. The island is still privately owned by his heirs. The island is between the two eastern forks of Long Island.

Fire Island Lighthouse

I spent an afternoon at the Fire Island lighthouse. I had never been there before and found it to be an interesting location I plan to return to in the future.

Portraits of Rocks

As I posted last year during the winter I take a day and hike along the bluffs of Montauk photographing rocks. These rocks are glacial deposits. I find some of the rocks have character of their own. I have been photographing them in a style similar to portraits as such I call them Rock Portraits. Please enjoy the following portraits.
