Linking up with Skywatch Friday and Good Fences
I appreciate all my blogging friends for their visit and wonderful comments thru-out the year! I wish everyone all the best in 2015, Happy New Year!
The day after Christmas was a beautiful day to be outside. Hubby and I joined up with my hubby's cousin for a walk around Fort McHenry in Baltimore.. It has a nice walkway along the water with view of the Fort which is famous for the Star-Spangled Banner written by Francis Scott Key..
I took some shots of the Fort's canons, the flag, fences and the sky..Oh I can not forget some ducks in the Baltimore Harbor.. Later in the day I took some shots of the waxing crescent moon from my deck..
A couple of Mallard duck, the Baltimore harbor and a view of the neighborhood Canton across the way.
A Double-crested Cormorant flying by.
A view of Fort McHenry, the flag and a fence scene for Tex's Good Fences meme.
A beautiful sunny day, the water glistening along the harbor's walkway..
The Bufflehead ducks seemed plentiful around the harbor..
Another view of the Fort's canons, flag and the fence..
The sky and a pretty tree seen along the harbor's walkway.
A lone male Bufflehead duck floating in the Baltimore harbor.
Continuing on our walk around the fort, another view of the Fort's flag and fence..
More Bufflehead ducks see on the calm water.
Another sky shot for Skywatch Friday, a view of the Francis Scott Key bridge..
Back home a shot of the waxing crescent moon seen from my deck..I hope you enjoyed our walk along the Baltimore Harbor and Fort McHenry..Thanks for stopping by and for the nice comments..

Hello Eileen,
This looks like a beautiful walk in a beautiful setting.

Hello in the New Year !
This looks like a lovely walk ! Your pictures are fantastic ! That's nice to watch wanderful place !
Happy New Year !
I like the rusty ship and love the fort. I have always liked to wander in old forts, there are three in my hometown of Savannah and several here in Florida and I have spent happy hours in all of them..
I wish you good things and blessings in this new year.
Happy New Year! xoxo
Such spectacular views!
Happy New Year

Looks like it was a gorgeous day! I love the tree by the walkway, the Buffleheads and the bridge.

Interesting how those pictures remind me of where I live (Halifax, Nova Scotia). Happy New Year! :-)

Dimi...
Such a beautiful harbor and historic site. I love your shot of the crescent moon.
You know how much I love your photos . . .
I have a very favorite this time . . .
The Crescent Moon gave me goose bumps . . .
Hi
with so great photos can start the new year well
You and your family a happy new year
Regards Frank
Looks like a wonderful day to be outside. Nice photos, especially the one of the moon.
I can just smell the fresh, crisp air on your walk. What a beautiful way to spend your day ... and thank you for sharing it with us all the way up to the moon. I saw that sliver of the moom over my house on the day after Christmas ... tried to take a picture but didn't have my tripod out so it didn't come out like yours. Is it wonderful that we can share the same beautiful view even though we are miles apart. Happy New Year, Eileen. I am looking forward to another year of your inspiring photography

Happy New Year to a great series of photos and you.
I wished I could visit Baltimore Harbor. It looks so interesting with the history and the waterfront. Carol
Happy New Year, Eileen! Loved the tour of the harbor and Ft. McHenry. Wonderful pictures of the ducks and that moon shot! Wow. Looking forward to another great year sharing pictures across Good Fences :)
Great pictures. I love when nature combines so beautifully with history.
Eileen, classic fence. Happy New Year. Thanks for sharing.
Looks like a lovely day there for sure. Sitting on one of those benches and taking in the view would be fun. Great shot of the fort and fences.
Gorgeous views and scenery!

(¸.·´ (¸.·´ .·´ Happy New Year Eileen! Great photos! Fort McHenry is a great place to visit not only for the scenery, but you get to hear all about the writing of the Star Spangled Banner, and also because you can take the water taxi to get there, seeing many interesting things along the way.
A great set of photos. Especially love the ambience of the scene with the lone tree by the harbour walkway. Happiest New Year to you.
Looks like a great day for a walk and beautiful shots. I love the moon. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year, Eileen!! Such wonderful photos!! The next best thing to being there!! Thanks as always for sharing the fun and the beauty!!
Sylvia
Oh my, the crescent moon photo is spectacular. How amazing to realize there is likely an American flag still on that same moon. :)
Yes, I love, beautiful pictures, a wonderful scenary! I wish you a happy 2015 full of light dawns that fill you with vitality and beautiful sunsets that cover your tender heart!
Lovely scenes of sky and water!
Happy New Year!

Beautiful views Eileen! Happy New Year:-)
What a great place. Happy New Year!
Beautiful shots! I need to get up there to visit someday.
Very nice series ! What wonderful weather You have ! Sadly, winter overhere.
You take the prettiest moon shots! Happy New Year, Eileen!
There's something very peaceful about open spaces. I love the pic of the duck zooming close down to the water's surface.
Gorgeous harbor! Very nice shot of the lone tree and the bridge is impressive! You had a good day!
I've been to Balitimore, but never have made it to Fort McHenry, so I appreciate you taking us with you on your visit. I hope you and your family have a very happy new year.
Happy New Year! I enjoyed your post Christmas walk.
Beautiful! Thank you for taking us along.
What a great walk. Wonderful views and shots.
Happy New Year too.
Terrific scenery! Happy New Year.
Such a fun visit this was. Great day to be out and about in each and every shot. A most Happy New Year to you too, and I look forward to blogging along in 2015 too!
The Francis Scott Key bridge looks pretty awesome! Love the shot of the sunny day as well.
Wonderful romp by the water!

Ti Auguro un anno splendente che ti regali i suoi riflessi più belli e i suoi raggi più caldi ogni giorno, come se il sole splendesse sempre. Buon 2015, e che sia come lo vuoi tu. Auguri.!
Thank you Pauline! I am sorry you did not leave your website or blog so I could return the visit to you..
That Bufflehead on his own, is sad, while the other has four females, not fair, lol. Great photos Eileen.
First of all: Happy New Year for you and your familie, Eileen.
You are starting the new year with a lot of wonderful clear blue skies, I specially like the shot of that tree along the harbor's walkway.
not heard of bufflehead ducks before but I do like them
Here wishing your family and you a very Happy New Year 2015. Beautiful close up shot of the moon.
What a great moon, Eileen!

Hi Eileen, Great photos ... makes me want to visit your part of the world. Moon photo is awesome! Thanks for stopping by my blog and your kind comment. John
Happy New Year to you and your family!
Wonderful views and such a lovely weather!
Happy weekend :)
Beautiful captures all!!
Happy New Year to you and yours!!
Two days into retirement now...are you bored yet? lol
Love the ship's bow and the cormorant image. That's mind blowing beautiful.
Hi Eileen, it's fun to see the Baltimore harbor through your lenses because I have a very different view of the Baltimore harbor. We visit the harbor periodically because we don't live very far away. But we always ended up at the busy part of the harbor.
Happy New Year to you and yours. I hope that 2015 will bring you (and me) lots of joy, happiness and GOOD HEALTH.
Looks like a great little trip to Fort McHenry and the Baltimore Harbor... Great photos...
Hugs,
Betsy
Loved the pictures..I've done some sailing in those waters..Pretty area..Thanks for the refresher!! .Happy New Year..
Beautiful pictures and what nice blue skies !
Eileen,
Beautiful duck.
Great series photoshoot.
Greetings from Polish.
Lucia
It dows seem like a great place for a walk. Ans so sunny it looks like summer :)
Happy New Year to you and your family.
I did indeed enjoy following you on your walks, Eileen. Sometimes, the scenes weren't that different from ones we might see here. Haven't seen any Buffleheads lately (they tend to gather more on the North Shore), but the cormorant, the shoreline with walkway, the docks.. all felt sort of familiar. Your moon shot at the end was absolutely spectacular!
Looks like great weather for that lovely walk. Happy New Year.
A beautiful winters day. Lovely scenery and ducks.
Happy new year from the summer side of the world. :-)
Nice to see this! I haven't been there since about 1982!
What a beautiful day for a walk and you got some great shots. Really like the moon one :-)
Wishing you a Happy and Prosperous New Year,Nice fort,looks like from the WW2 era.
That's the sort of walk that I would enjoy - water, ducks and bridges with the fences for good measure..
Happy New Year.
Beautiful walk around an area we totally missed when we traveled up there. Must go back!
Again many beautiful pictures Eileen:-)
I want to thank you for all your visits in the past year and all your sweet and nice comments.
I wish you and all your loved ones a very nice, happy
but above all a healthy 2015.
that we are in this new year of each other's photos and beautiful moments
can and should enjoy.

You most certainly had a beautiful day for your walk around the fort! Great scenes, as always, and such a wonderful capture of the moon! Happy new year, Eileen - wishing you many blessings this year. :)
