The images presented were taken in the 1990's. Taken as prints, there is degradation when going from print to digital images. Also, where we were traveling sometimes delayed processing for weeks or months and humidity played havoc with the undeveloped film. Still, I wanted to share our experiences through the pictures we took.
Annapolis is right on a weather line. Sometimes when we were above the line, we got snow, below the line and we got ice or rain, depending on the temperature. When we got snow, we got out the camera and snapped pictures. We'd been in the tropics for over three years and had LOTS of pictures of sandy beaches and palm trees. Snow and ice were a novelty and we wanted to remember these times. Port Annapolis Marina was set in among lots of trees, so when snow fell, it was magical. Sometimes when we didn't quite make the line and it rained and then turned cold, everything was coated in ice, it looked like a fantasyland. Our two winters in Annapolis were incredible. Despite the snow, ice and cold temperatures, we loved our stay. During the winter of 93/94, parts of the Chesapeake froze. What a deal! The pictures were so different from the tropical pictures we were used to.
