Sitting on the Pier at Seneca Lake, NY is one of my favorite past times. I love to watch the Seagulls and talk with the fisherman that are there at times. I also get to meet visitors from all around as they visit the pier as well. It is so calming and peacefull. / / Canon EOS 350D XT / / This image was Featured in the Weekly Themed Challenges Group in Mar 09.

A foggy day at the pier….made for some great photos. :) / / This is the Senece Lake Harbor Pier. I love coming to the pier and watching everything around it. There is an absolutely beautiful view on a clear day, people fishing, tourists and locals walking the harbor. There is a couple restaurants on the pier to eat with yummy foods. There is also a place you can register to go out on either the Ship you see here to tour the lake, or a large boat you can go out on or we also have a new “Party Boat” that can be rented for parties. The Wine Tour Train also stops here on its tours for their rest break and turn around. That in itself is a great tour! But the lake is such as solemn place to be. Quiet yet busy at times. :) I love to come here and just sit and watch (and take photos..lol). / / This is AS IS, straight from the camera: Canon 350D Rebel XT / / / / / /

If you ever want to see something that will take your breath away, go to see this place. I was fascinated with how the rocks looked more like a mohawk when viewed at an angle, instead of the usual flat or rounded peak you normally see with rocks. Even with it being an overcast day, the view was just amazing. Nope didnt go up to the top on this one. lol There used to be a huge rock in the very center of the rocks, due to people climbing, and the earth moving, the rock finally came down. There are some caverns there also, and yep, I did go into them :) Seneca Rocks is one of the best-known landmarks in West Virginia. These rocks have long been noted as a scenic attraction and are popular with rock climbers. The rocks are a magnificent formation rising nearly 900 feet above the North Fork River. Eastern West Virginia contains many such formations of the white/gray Tuscarora quartzite. Seneca Rocks and nearby Champe Rocks are among the most imposing examples. The quartzite is approximately 250 feet thick and is located primarily on exposed ridges as caprock or exposed crags.

Designer of famous Central Park in NYC, Olmsted was given an entire series of parks to design in Louisville, Kentucky. Louisville’s park system was the last designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and one of only five such systems across the country. Known nationally as the defining park system of his career, it stands today as one of his best-preserved works, reflecting the genius of Olmsted’s vision. In all, Olmsted and his successor firm developed plans for 18 parks and 6 parkways that today comprise Louisville’s historic park system. http://www.olmstedparks.org/

This ancient seneca council house stood at GA-O-YA-DE-O (Canadea) on the Genesee river in days antedating the American Revolution. In it gathered the war parties that devastated the frontiers and before it their helpless prisoners ran the gauntlet. Around its council fires sat famous warriors and chiefs. For it’s preservation, it was carefully removed to its present location by William Pryor Letchworth and was re-dedicated October 1, 1872 by the last Indian council on the Genesee. Photographed January 2nd, 2009 in Letchworth State Park, Castile, NY Nikon D80 ~ 18-135mm ~ ISO320 N 42.5873° / W 78.0412°

Canon EOS 350D, Rebel XT / / This is for a challenge. The challenge is for the Post Cards Group called “Famous landmarks/monuments with a Twist”. Seneca lake is a tourist trap in the summer due to the lake,famous NASCAR Track, Wineries (they call us the Napa Valley of the East.,.lol) and just the beauty of the whole area. / / Digital Art Compilation: / This image was initially taken around noon time. It was an over cast day and the air was laying heavy on the lake. We have a lot of days that you can not see across the lake due to the air being heavy, foggy, etc. This was one of those days. We are at Seneca Lake Pier which is at one end of the lake, normally you can see way down the lake, this day, not so much. A very gray day. / So with a comment from someone say, too bad the light wasn’t on, I took the image and duplicated the layer, working one layer a bit darker than the other, with another layer of just the hills on the right, I worked them alone because in the initial photo you could not really even see much of them due to fog. After working the image to look as it does with working the opacity of the layers and some filters added, I decided I would light that light up. Using the spot light, I did just that. :) After I did that I merged all the layers. I then, due to a challenge, added the lettering. / / / / This image was in the Top Ten in the challenge “Famous landmarks/monuments-with a twist” in the Postcard Style Group. Thank you all that voted for my image. I appreciate it very much. / / This image has been featured in the Rural Around the Globe Group in April 2009. Thank you so very much. What an honor it is! / / / / / /

Seneca Rocks is an unincorporated community located in Pendleton County, West Virginia, USA. The community of Seneca Rocks (formerly known as Mouth of Seneca) lies along West Virginia Route 28/West Virginia Route 55 near the confluence of Seneca Creek and the North Fork South Branch Potomac River. The community also lies near Seneca Rocks, the crag from which it takes its name. Both lie within the Spruce Knob-Seneca Rocks National Recreation Area of the Monongahela National Forest. The route to Seneca Rocks, West Virginia is just made for twisty lovers. To really take advantage of one of West Virginia’s best rides, take Rt. 55 from Virginia to Seneca Rocks and take Rt. 33 back from Seneca Rocks to Virginia. Not only will you see signs for such exotic sounding places as Lost River and Lost City, you will also find that both routes are beautiful, challenging and filled with sharp steep curves that are sure to satisfy even the most adventurous rider. Be forewarned though, amenities such as gas stations are few and far between on these routes. So fill your tank before you begin your ride and carry plenty of water and snacks with you. Take your time. Maybe stop and have a picnic. Getting there is definitely half the fun.

These huge wine casks adorn the vineard at the Glenora winery on the western shore of Lake Seneca in upstate New York. It had been a very hot and humid day, making the evening view of the lake a bit hazy. This photo was captured handheld with a Canon EOS 10D with a Canon EF 50mm f/2.5 Compact-Macro prime lens. The shutter speed was 1/60th sec at f/16. The camera’s ISO was set to 100. Your comments are always welcome!

This photo was taken while I was in the passenger seat. We were on our way to Seneca Rocks while camping on the Cheat River during the Fourth of July holiday. We were going about 60 miles per hour and I could not believe my eyes that I actually captured this. Enjoy! Elkins, West Virginia NIKON D60 18-55 Nikor VR Lens

Purchased by the federal government in 1969, Seneca Rocks is one of the best-known landmarks in West Virginia. These rocks have long been noted as a scenic attraction and are popular with rock climbers. The rocks are a magnificent formation rising nearly 900 feet above the North Fork River. Eastern West Virginia contains many such formations of the white/gray Tuscarora quartzite. Seneca Rocks and nearby Champe Rocks are among the most imposing examples. The quartzite is approximately 250 feet thick and is located primarily on exposed ridges as caprock or exposed crags. The rock is composed of fine grains of sand that were laid down approximately 440 million years ago, in an extensive sheet at the edge of ancient ocean. Years of geologic activity followed, as the ocean was slowly destroyed and the underlying rock uplifted and folded. Millions of years of erosion stripped away the overlaying rock and left remnants of the arching folds in formations such as Seneca Rocks. Man has apparently been a visitor to the area around Seneca Rocks for a long time. Some evidence suggests that the Native Americans of the Archaic Period may have camped at the mouth of nearby Seneca Creek. The famous Seneca Trail followed the Potomac River, allowing the Algonquin, Tuscarora, and Seneca tribes to trade and make war. The first European settlers in the region appeared about 1746. At that time, West Virginia (or western Virginia as it was then) was the edge of the great wilderness. Slowly the area was settled, disturbed by the events of the American Revolution and the Civil War, which pitted brother against brother in these border counties. It is unknown who the first person was to climb Seneca Rocks. Undoubtedly Native Americans scaled the rocks prior to European settlers reaching the area, but there is no record of their ascents. The historic ascent of Paul Brandt, Don Hubbard, and Sam Moore in 1939 found an inscription of “D.B. Sept. 16, 1908.” This has been attributed to a surveyor named Bittenger who was known to be working in the area. (Seneca, the Climber’s Guide by Bill Webster). The documented climbing history of the rocks began in 1935 with a roped ascent of the North Peak by Paul Brandt and Florence Perry. In the 1930’s and 40’s only a few climbers, mostly from the D.C. and Pittsburgh areas, attempted to climb Seneca Rocks. In 1943-44 the U.S. Army used the rocks to train mountain troops for action in the Apennines. Evidence of their climbing activities can still be found on the rocks. (Webster).

Taken at Seneca Lake in New York state taken by Lina Paul and Dj We all met for the day at Watkins Glen State park. Afterward we tried to capture the sunset on Seneca Lake but we were late. Lina, was sneaky when taking this because I had no clue what she was doing and she was so excited that I didn’t move. LOL
