Postcard From the Shore
It looks like summer is really over now so here is something to remember it by.
Life’s a Beach
I have been posting a lot of personal photos that I have taken at the beach lately but this is a sample of the client work that has been putting me at the beach with my camera in the first place.
Shiny Shoreline
A bonus effect happens when you get down at a really low angle on wet sand – the sand becomes highly reflective. If it’s wet enough it becomes a virtual mirror.
Driftwood
low angle is one of my favorite perspectives to incorporate into a composition. Presenting a subject in a very different way than from eye-level helps give it more visual impact.
Down by the Seaside
Down is certainly the key word here. I got all the way down to the ground with the camera to get a perspective that has some visual impact.
Moonlight Flight
I have been shooting like mad lately for paying clients and almost not at all for myself. I think Memorial Day was the only day I’ve had off in about 7 weeks. So I’m still mostly just grabbing random old shots out of my computer to post here until that changes. That’s not necessarily a bad thing though because otherwise some shots like this that I actually sort of like might stay buried in my archives and not ever get seen by anyone.
A Ship on the Horizon
I stayed at the beach until it was dark but I kept taking lengthy time exposures that gave a surreal, dreamy look to the scene.
The Sun Goes Down Alone
A chilly December evening and there was no one at the beach to see the sun set except me.
