Found some morning glory taking in the 5:30 P.M. light!


I'll be watching this scene, which has potential. I'll call it
"Mauve and Leaf."


Main Street was busy for a while.


Inflatable Halloween at Cole's Hardware!


Tonight I saw the Capitol Marquee, full of light, for the first time
in over a decade! Yes, the future looks bright for Bloomsburg!


AND warmer temps brought activity back to the fountain
at Market Square!

Looks really beautiful there!!! If it didn't get so damm cold in the winter I might consider a move!!

Oh your giving me memories here. Our daughter stayed in a beautiful, older building right in town while attending Bloomsburg. ( later she was able to get up a bit closer to the class buildings)
She was a doorway, alongside the Pizza place ( not sure if it is that now).....Would be on the right heading towards the School. We visited a lot......I fell in love with the town even before she enrolled........a great walking town. ( Although, she would say those hills were too much to handle heading to class)

Great pic's, Ken!! Wish I had time to get back into photography. Was heavily involved in it starting in the early 80's while in the Navy. I still have all my 35mm equipment stored in my Tamrac bag in the shed. Need to break them out someday and dust them off. At one time I worked in a photography store on 20th Street and 5 Ave. in Manhattan from '89 - '90. After the store closed I went to school for computers and that put an end to my shooting days. After looking at your pic's....maybe I will get back into it. I would like to get a Nikon digital. I have an HP digital that I bought for $299 like 3 or 4 years ago. Keep the pic's coming!!

Bloomsburg is a great walking town! It is one mile from the fountain at Market & Main Streets to the Susquehanna River. The town is relatively flat. The fairgrounds and surrounding neighborhood are at river level. Most of the town rises and there is a plateau far above floodstage. Then there is the B.U. Campus set on a hill. There lies the challenge!

As I mentioned before, I lived in a neighboring town. Not until I moved here did I really begin to appreciate everything! I walk every day. Summering, You may have missed a wonderful gem. Just one block off Main Street to the north, away from the direction of the river, sitting on a ridge, is the Old Rosemont Cemetery. I walk to this ridge every time it snows. I have some great pictures......

My photographs are hand held, no tripod. No photoshopping.

You worked near my favorite building! I call it by its real name, The Fuller!

Do you have photos from my favorite city?

Wonderful shots Ken, I liked the bug the most. What a great close up shot.

[WatsonWest]

The photos are great. I can't wait for some trick-or-treating ones.
Since Halloween is on a Friday, I bet all of the towns will be doing it then. You should try to come up here & get some of the "haunted" houses around me.

I do....in boxes somewhere in my shed or the spare bedroom somewhere. I also have some special effect color slides that I took of the Empire State Building lobby. People can't believe I did it by hand...no filter holders or anything of that nature. I'll have to figure out how to scan them with my scanner that has a slide holder. Some would look really nice framed. My work schedule doesn't help either when trying to get something like this done. Darn work!! Always gettin' in the way!! HA-HA!!
