Hi Folks!
I see that Sal has posted a link to his collection of 4th of July photos. What a wonderful series of portraits of the beautiful people and happenings at the celebration!
With pleasure, I share some of the images I took at the 2023 Jamestown 4th of July Celebration. After a lifetime of living nearby, it was the first time we attended this wonderful gathering of neighbors. Thank you all for being there, especially for the contributions of organizers, volunteers, the fire department, vendors, musicians and wood splitting contestants. Thanks too, to the director of the town photo, Mr. Sal DiVincenzo, who orchestrates the gathering. Sal's guidance and encouragement is leading me to better photography. You'll see him at work in several of my photos. My images can't approach the quality of Sal's, but they offer different views.
Since about age 7, I have carried a camera to chronicle my life. My passion is wildlife photography so I'm a bit out of my element aiming the camera into people's faces. I appreciate that no one punched me for pointing at them. I had so much fun with so many wonderful folks! My only regret is that I didn't photograph everyone.
For the first time ever, I'm sharing a photo album on a public forum. Play the slide show. It can be found at:
