Smoke on the Water
Alright so I know I have a problem. A majority of my images have oceans, rivers, or some bodies of water in them. In regards to the ocean I am simply drawn to how massive, how beautiful, and how mesmerizing it can be watching the waves draw to the shore. I think the smaller versions remind me of my love for the sea. Hey I guess we shoot what is pleasing to us, right?
This image comes from Wyandotte County Lake once again. There is a wee itty bitty pier that looks much longer here that what it truly is here. The water was deathly still because they have restricted boats from being on the water for the season and I arrived early enough that there was still a little fog on some of the lake. I was shooting directly into the sunrise and it was tough enough trying to keep the "light bubbles" off the frame but in the end they kind of produced a dreamy effect for my tastes.
From behind the camera I find myself with a toothache today. I dread the dentist. I have horror stories as child from dentist visits in my early childhood. So next week I will have to find time to get it examined and then endure the pain of both the drill (ugh) and the cost of said torture.
