OBX III

By now you know that I like to take photo at the beach and that one of my favorite spots is the Outer Banks of North Carolina, USA.  This year I had ample opportunity to enjoy my hobby.  Along with the usual sunrises and sunsets, we had a cool storm and an awesome moon rise.  I even had a chance experiment with the milky way!  Lots to learn about star photography, but not too bad for my first try....

I hope that you like the photos!

 

  

 

 

 

 

Pigeon Point Light

How about some lighthouse images for mid-summer?  Here are some photos I took a little over a year ago on a trip to California.  I hung on to them for a while as I figured out what to do with the blown out sky on some of the images.  I've tried to correct using the graduated filter tool in Lightroom.   I hope I didn't overdo it and make them look fake!

This is Pigeon Point Lighthouse, south of Moss Beach.  It is a beautiful spot.  Christina and I were treated to seeing whales that day as they swam by right off the shore behind the light.

Here is a link for more information about Pigeon Point.  I hope you like the photos!
