Thistle with Bee

Posted by Laurie (New Jersey, United States) on 26 August 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

A few weeks ago we went to Palisades Interstate Park in Ft. Lee and Edgewater NJ, just below the George Washington Bridge. It is a beautiful park and quite large encompassing 12 miles along the Hudson River across from NYC.

The day we were there the weather was very threatening and in fact we were caught driving the cliffs in a very scary, windy, severe, thunderstorm. As scary as it was for us in the car, I was glad we weren't among the hikers and bikers that had been caught in it.

I did manage to get a few shots and some of my favorites really could have come from anywhere such as this one.

I post the same photos here as on Capturethisphotography.com but they are higher res. and landscape orientation shots are larger size.
