A Journey Through Pennsylvania (etc), Time, and Space

photoLith · #1 Posted **Aug 23, 2016, 9:20 PM**

The last thread I posted was in February, so here's a bunch of photos Ive taken since then in and around PA; and a few other places Ive been since February outside of PA. Theres only a few small towns left in the western part of the state that I haven't been to. Its taken damn near 4 years to visit everything that I've wanted to include in my book on Western PA. Im talking to the University of Pittsburgh Press at the moment and then hope to market the book through Amazon and Barnes and Nobles next year. Anyways, heres a bunch of photos from this year.

What a commonwealth.

matthew6 · #3 Posted **Aug 23, 2016, 11:16 PM**

Wow. Absolutely stunning.

fflint · #4 Posted **Aug 23, 2016, 11:56 PM**

Great photos.

Murphy de la Sucre · #5 Posted **Aug 24, 2016, 12:16 AM**

I am speechless.
What talent were you given when born?
What camera did you use when shot those photos?
What photographic academy did you take part in?
What are you going to get award from those photos?

matthew6 · #6 Posted **Aug 24, 2016, 12:40 AM**

.... this thread manages to make Pennsylvania the most beautiful place in the world.....

I use Nikon, although all digital cameras are pretty much the same nowadays if you know what youre doing. I never went to school for photography. Thank you.

This is photo-book-on-the-coffee-table worthy stuff.

Lots of people in these photo forums try to make artsy-looking photos, and to be honest I get really tired of it quickly. But this is really good stuff!

Austinlee · #9 Posted **Aug 24, 2016, 3:31 AM**

This one really stood out to me. The lighting is so intense....

Great work, as usual.

Kingofthehill · #10 Posted **Aug 24, 2016, 8:05 AM**

incredible work, sir!

photoLith · #11 Posted **Aug 24, 2016, 9:05 PM**

Thanks everyone

xzmattzx · #12 Posted **Aug 25, 2016, 1:32 AM**

Great pictures!

What's the story behind the schoolhouse in Mercer?

You've hit just about every state surrounding Pennsylvania except Delaware! When will you be coming over here?

AviationGuy · #13 Posted **Aug 25, 2016, 1:59 AM**

You have more talent than anyone I've ever come across, and I mean it. You need to be "discovered" if you haven't been already.

Ive been discovered sort of but not really. Still waiting for my big break...

Buckeye Native 001 · #15 Posted **Aug 25, 2016, 3:50 PM**

Holy shit

Also, Cincinnati's a long way from Pennsylvania

brickell · #16 Posted **Aug 29, 2016, 3:34 PM**

great set as usual. I'd love to see more of the natural/nature stuff. This in particular...

I really like photo with the Pittsburgh skyline and sunset. Also the last one with the fernicular. It look like a beautiful city based on your photos.

AJW · #18 Posted **Aug 30, 2016, 6:16 PM**

Absolutely amazing. Not just the talent and skill, but also the effort. In the snow, at night, through tunnels...really something else.

photoLith · #19 Posted **Aug 30, 2016, 7:03 PM**

Thank you, I spend nearly all my time and money taking photos and researching places to take photos.
