It Makes Me Smile



Tony has told me that I really smile when I am at the beach--not my typical, stiff, OH GOD I HATE HAVING MY PICTURE TAKEN SMILE, but a real smile.   He's right.  I love the beach.  I love watching the waves, the birds and people who shouldn't be in beachwear!  I love the sounds, the smells and the feel of sun on my face.   Now that I have my camera, I love going to the beach even more.  I see something that looks like it would be a good picture, I aim and shoot.  The fun is going home and downloading what I captured to see how close I came to the vision I saw.
 
We went back to the beach yesterday and it was great.  Mid September is the best time to be in North Carolina--it's cooler and easy to be outside.  The beach isn't  crowded and the car isn't the temperature of hell inside once you decide to go back home.   I relax when I am there and feel rested and recharged.
 
Here are some of the images I captured yesterday.  I took over 1100 pictures in 2 hours.  I deleted over 800 of them and really only have only about 20 good ones, but I had a blast just taking pictures and being by the ocean.

Standing at attention

The sun peaks through the clouds

A pelican scopes out lunch

Great legs!!

Follow the leader!
