Stolen Souls: Or My Day Photographing Things in Lancaster County

The Tim’s, Mike and I headed out to Lancaster
on a Sunday
to see the beauty of the countryside
and we weren’t disappointed
I love shooting the Amish in the most polite way possible. I think my fascination with them is the simple way of life I sometimes wish I could live, but I would be bored to death. Who am I kidding.
They’re friendly and always give a wave, mostly to each other but this kid waved to me. A few minutes after this the guy behind me tried to pass us both nearly running the buggy off the road. So seriously people don’t visit or move to Lancaster County if you don’t have patience. It was a NJ license plate and I wanted to throttle him.
Instead I continued my way to Starsburg to ride the rails. I HIGHLY recommend doing this. So much fun riding a train through the farm fields.
You might even get a chance to have Thomas the Train be your engineer.
The Tims. They just celebrated 7 years.
I love flags. Although this one shouldn’t be touching the ground.
Courting
fighting
frightening
So cool I caught the Amish kids in a swimming hole. I didn’t have my long lens, but their black pants and white shirts were all piled on the side. Until next time.
