Well after being incapacitated for the past month. I made it out for a small ride. I figured what the heck I'll bring the camera and shoot some pics...
For you locals, can you name this location ??

 

I'm local-ish, and i got nothin. haha. Obviously the pics weren't taken in my part of CT!

Nice ride though

 

very cool area where is that?

 

That looks really familiar, but I just can’t nail it down…

Are you up by Gillette Castle maybe? Or is that one of the reservoirs? Give us a hint here man.

 

Next Mod: New Camera

next time you are bored.. drive down here and wash my car

 

ARCGuy, your on the right track...
Doug, next time I'll PM you and you can come up and shoot the pics .....

 

Thats the damn on Rt ___, in Fairfield county. I can't remember the number. It goes along the lake and then farther up it takes a left (while going north) and crosses over that dam.

 

Mike, part of it is a dam, Not in Farfield county. Its in Litchfield county. The pics of the Z near the water fountain are actually below the dam.
Originally I set out to find some nice twisty roads, and intended to pass through this area. So, I brought my digital video cam.
I need to go out and spend a good day out there and see If any of the roads are worthy. when I can really go and enjoy it.

 

Is it in the southern part of Litchfield though? Lake Candlewood? I can't remember where the county lines are.

 

you might be thinking upper RT 7 .. i was thinking RT 6

 

The location Is Barkamsted Reservoir.
Its been a couple Years since I went up that way. I Hope to get out that way some more.
There were a few Zs out there and a Porsche or two.
Anybody have some good runs through the area ?

 

Bah, I was close.

Doug I was thinking of Rt 7

 

some cool pics.

 

Barkhamestead or whatever its called is closer to Hartford.. New Hartford.. Avon Mountain area..

 

Shhh!

 

Looks like you could use a better camera

 

Yeah probly so... I should have spent a little more time with it. It just came back from Canon for repairs. I really didnt spend much time with it, just brought it with me... The settings were all on factory default.
Sorry I'll try better next time, In any case we all Know

 

The Canon ZR65MC is a Digital Camcorder .. you shouldn't be doing still shots with it.. the Zoom is horrible... thats why your pictures look so grainey.. kinda like the ISO is too high.. get a nice DSLR ... maybe a Nikon D40 .. great starter camera for those interested in taking pictures..

you look like you like taking photos.. get a DSLR
