Little shool house

This wanderful building in northern New Jersey was once a great site to visit because on weekends volunteer would open it and allow people to visit and enjoy. A few years ago, it was handed over to the Federal Governmen and it  never opened again. A pity.

Little school house

This old one room schoolhouse is on Rte 206 in northern New Jersey. Up to a few years ago it was run by the local county and volunteers kept it open on weekends so that one could visit. It was passed on to the Federal Government and it has become totally inacce4ssible to the public. It does make for nice pictures, however.

A tree in New Jersey / Lumix GX1

 

Fall has begun somewhat reluctantly because  the temperature has been rather summer like.  This tree fascinated me while I was waiting to have lunch al fresco at a roadside diner. I was eager to try out my new Panasonic Lumix Vario 14-45 F 1:3.5-5.6 lens. This is not the kit lens but the better one that is very well built and has a metal mount. It appears to be a very competent optic. It's also a great buy and comes with a very nice lens shade,
