"CALM AFTER THE STORM" / Fredericksburg Photography Series #21


"CALM AFTER THE STORM" This is a photograph of the CSX two track concrete arch bridge crossing the Rappahannock River in downtown Fredericksburg. This is one of three bridges that played an important part of the U.S. Civil War. I personally took this photo after a big storm in June 2008 - note the muddy water and logs against the bridge supports.

My photographic series of Fredericksburg’s historical sites and Old Town events was influenced by my wife graduating and my granddaughter attending Mary Washington University. My wife Pat and daughter are well known in the Fine Art community of Fredericksburg.

Mary Washington Home / Fredericksburg Photography Series #1


My photographic series of Fredericksburg’s historical sites and Old Town events was influenced by my wife graduating and my granddaughter attending Mary Washington University. My wife Pat and daughter are well known in the Fine Art community of Fredericksburg.

Mary Washington Home: In 1772, George Washington purchased a house from Michael Robinson in Fredericksburg, Virginia for his mother. Mary Ball Washington spent her last seventeen years in this comfortable home. The white frame house sits on the corner of Charles and Lewis Streets and was in walking distance to Kenmore, home of Mary's daughter Betty Fielding Lewis.

Thanks for looking at my photos.
