Admiralty Head Lighthouse


In the days before HDR exposing for this type of a scene was a real challenge for me. I didn't have the chance to shoot this in the morning or late afternoon. It was take what you can get, so I had to expose for the lighthouse and let the trees go dark.

Sure, I can dodge and burn... this is out of the camera.

HDR is an area I've yet to seriously explore. I like the possibilities it opens up, so, yet another project to pursue.

Spending time with family is just about the best thing about the holidays.

Heavy Lifting


Clouds have the amazing ability to capture color and bring so much to an image.

The chase is on


Even this small dog on wet sand somehow makes things just a bit more interesting...

There's room at the top


If that's where you really want to be...

I've got to apologize for all these sunset shots. I've had very little time to shoot since the time change, and have mostly been able to get very little time behind the lens on the weekends if I'm lucky.

Amongst the shadows


I went out to check the position of the sunset behind this pier and was happy to find that it is setting behind it. It does this in the Winter. After January forget it.

Due to the tide, I was forced higher up the beach than I would normally care to be. Come low tide this is going to be a great location, as wet sand adds a lot to sunset shots.
