Spring Roadtrip Along Franklin Pike, West Virginia /  by Todd Henson

A winding road through West Virginia in early spring

My father suggested a roadtrip into West Virginia the first weekend of April, which led us through some beautiful mountains and valleys. Heading south from Petersburg along Franklin Pike we saw many scenes like the one here, absolutely beautiful country roads weaving through the valley in early spring. It was a wonderful drive with only a very brief moment when it almost began to drizzle.

Reflections at Pope’s Creek in Winter /  by Todd Henson

Reflections on Pope’s Creek in winter as seen from the visitor’s center of George Washington Birthplace National Monument in Virginia

During a visit to George Washington Birthplace National Monument in Westmoreland County, Virginia, around mid-January of 2025, my father and I found a quiet and calm scene of winter as we looked out over Pope’s Creek, one of a great many tidal tributaries of the Potomac River.

A Visit to the Office /  by Todd Henson

A Visit to the Office

I found this scene at the Martinsburg Roundhouse in West Virginia, an historic railroad site.

I attempted to process the photo to have the look it might have been created in the era of the subject, which is the mid to late 1800s. Granted, it does appear as if some work was done more recently than the 1800s, but I still wanted the processing to fit the original era.
