I don't know their names but only that they died for our country in some form of fashion during some war that was fought...

Citronella Fire

I took this while in North Carolina at the KOA. It is burning Citronella to help keep the bugs away. We filled it up during that afternoon and it burnt for over 8 hours. We have these at our house and brought them with us for the weekend.

Rust...

Rust..., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

This was on the side of an old barn on 481 East that i rode by and on my mountain bike and then the next day, i drove to and took this photo. I think that the metal is galvanized metal. I liked the colors that are in the photo. I think that the wood grain is a nice touch to the metal(LOL)

Another Old Building...

Another Old Building..., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

While i was taking photos of the general store, i turned around and found this building on the opposite corner. It stood out to me by the way that it was all alone, no home near it. You can tell that it is very old due to the unevenness and the slanting of the structure. Perhaps it was a gas station or a post office or some other business. I say that because of the bars on the front windows and the way that the drive comes in front of it. I took it in 16:9 Aspect Ratio to get all of it and the surrounding trees.

Camera Update.

Over the three day weekend i took over 2 gigs of photos. I went to North Carolina on a full charge an shot over 400 photos on one 2 gig card. I can get over 440+ normaly on a 2 giger, but i did lots of RAW format photos and they take lots of room. When i switched cards, i still had over 60% better life left! I was ready for another 400+ but time ran out on us...
