I’m not thrilled with this shot, but I love that I caught him taking flight!

The sunset without a sun…
Who needs the sun in a sunset photo? The light alone makes the photo work for me!
Stormy sunsets…
A stormy sunset in Wild Wood Crest, NJ. It was almost monochromatic, which I love just as much as the intense colorful sunsets. Something about this scene makes me think of Quint and Captain Brody taking the Orca out on a fishing trip! Something about the look of the boat.. ahh, one of my favorite movies!
Check it out!!!
I submitted this photo in July’s collaborative project over at Nick Exposed. If you have a minute or two, check out the gallery! It is full of creativity and is a great place to find some inspiration for your next big project 🙂  ENJOY…
Lucy takes a dip…
Success! Lucy started crawling through the water today. She has been so timid at the beach, until now. Things have just gotten a lot more exhausting at the shore for everyone!
A Quote that has become stuck in my head…
“Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.” – Dr. Seuss
I’m surprised that I haven’t heard this one before! I love this quote. It may become my favorite. You can relate this to any number of things, and in each case, it is 100% true. What does it mean to you?
Highlighted clouds…
Today is gloomy. Lucy and I ran a few quick errands and, luckily, made it home just before the big storm. Thunder and lightening galore! I’m enjoying watching the rain out my back windows, but fingers crossed the day ends with some clouds like these. An exclamation point to the end of the day!
Finally…
This pure white feather is beautiful when bathed in the glow of the sunrise. Unfortunately, it  has a mind of its own! It was a bit camera shy, flying up into the air just at the wrong time. I thought I was going to miss this moment when the sun shows off the texture and the highlights. Luckily it sat still just long enough!
Algae memories…
This small piece of algae washed up during the sunrise and brought back so many memories! Funny, cause it just looks like a slimy little “tree” sticking up from the sand. Â I took a Phycology class in college. Everything you ever wanted to know about the biology of algae and seaweed! I was a marine biology major at the time, so it made sense to take the class about what many marine animals would be eating…turns out it was a tough class (and kind of boring, sorry Dr.Liddle !). There are more types of algae than I ever imagined !! Unfortunately, out of sight out of mind, and I don’t know what type this is, but it made for an interesting little reflection shot!
