Winter Escape

Christina and I had the chance to get out of winter for a couple of days and travel to the Dominican Republic.   We stayed at a very nice little resort in Punta Cana in the town of Cortecito.  The area is best known for its long stretches of white sandy beaches and turquoise Caribbean waters.

For this trip, I brought my Sony mirrorless camera and shot everything in RAW format.  Even with some processing in Lightroom, the photos, while nice, don't capture how stunning the blue, greens and whites of the ocean water were that week.   I was quite taken with the small, grass thatch roofed boat that was just offshore.  I took almost 100 photos of that boat moving around its anchor while the sun continuously changes the colors of the water around it!

Christina and I sat ocean front all day, from sunrise to moon rise.  Yeah, it was that kind of trip...

I hope you like the photos.
