Taken at Dewey Beach, DE with Diana clone on XP2. This is one of my favorite toy camera images, where all the pieces came together - including some lucky timing for the exposure.
I made a trip down south of Charleston, SC, this past weekend with my friend Arthur Yo to Botany Bay Plantation. This place has a unique beach that is setup nicely for some dramatic shots. As you can see here, the rising tide has not yet disturbed this area of water, which made for a great reflection scene against the backdrop of a colorful horizon. However, to get a scene like this, you got to be in a rush and out of breath. The entrance gates open 30 minutes before sunrise and after a little driving to park the car, you got a 1/2 mile run to the beach. Than another quarter-mile run to what I consider the best part of the beach. You are going to miss a big portion of the twilight hour in the morning but there's not much you can do without breaking some rules on the grounds. Suggestion for the park would be to open the gate an hour before sunrise. Anyway, I enjoyed shooting here and plan to go back later this Spring.
Zenith beach, Nelson Bay. Thanks to Jeff for lending me a filter after we climbed up the rocks and I realised I'd left all my filters back at the hotel
Donkey beach is a pretty unique place, it's a 'locals' beach on the east side of Kauai. Its a pretty long beach settled in the back of a large unprotected cove. It happens to be listed as one of the best nude beaches in Hawaii, but there was nothing of the sort when we were there (both when scouting out the beach and the next morning when I took this shot). We had the beach to ourselves and it was absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to get back to Kauai!
...and what about plastic waste on our beaches ?....
think about, before you throw away your crap at wonderful places in nature !!!

The shot counter on the 5D Mark III says I've already taken 10,000 photos since I bought the camera three months ago. The unfortunate thing is 99.9% of those are for work...
With that in mind, I decided to get out of the hotel tonight and head down to the beach. Every last inch of this pier has been photographed to death so this is far from original, but it felt good to be using the camera for my own purposes.

Dungeness is a headland on the coast of Kent, England, formed largely of a shingle beach in the form of a cuspate foreland. It shelters a large area of low-lying land, Romney Marsh. Dungeness is also the name of the power station and a few other nearby buildings near the beach, and of an important ecological site at the same location.
Dungeness is one of the largest expanses of shingle in the world. It is of international conservation importance for its geomorphology, plant and invertebrate communities and birdlife. This is recognised and protected mostly through its conservation designations as a National Nature Reserve (NNR), a Special Protection Area (SPA), a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and part of the Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) of Dungeness, Romney Marsh and Rye Bay.
There is a remarkable variety of wildlife living at Dungeness, with over 600 different types of plant: a third of all those found in Britain. It is one of the best places in Britain to find insects such as moths, bees and beetles, and spiders; many of these are very rare, some found nowhere else in Britain.
The short-haired bumblebee, Bombus subterraneus, was last found in the UK in 1988, but has survived in New Zealand after being shipped there more than 100 years ago. It is to be reintroduced at Dungeness. It is planned that the first bees will be introduced in the spring of 2010.
The flooded gravel pits on Denge Beach, both brackish and fresh water, provide an important refuge for many migratory and coastal bird species. The RSPB has a bird sanctuary there and every year thousands of bird watchers descend on the peninsula to catch a glimpse of a rare bird from the bird observatory.
One of the most remarkable features of the site is an area known as 'the patch' or, by anglers, as 'the boil'. The waste hot water and sewage from the Dungeness nuclear power stations are pumped into the sea through two outfall pipes, enriching the biological productivity of the sea bed and attracting seabirds from miles around.
Beach fishing is popular at Dungeness, with the area being a nationally recognised cod fishing venue in the winter.
The name Dungeness derives from Old Norse nes: "headland", with the first part probably connected with the nearby Denge Marsh. Popular etymology ascribes a French origin to the toponym, giving an interpretation as "dangerous nose".
Varkala is the only place in southern Kerala where one can find cliffs adjacent to the Arabian sea. These tertiary sedimentary formation cliffs are a unique geological feature in the otherwise flat Kerala coast, and is known among geologists as Varkala Formation and a geological monument as declared by the Geological survey of India. There are numerous water spouts and spas on the sides of these cliffs.
Varkala is also famous for its 900 year old Janardana swami temple which is an important Vaishnavaite shrine in India and is referred to as Dakshin Kashi (Benares of the south). The temple is located close to the Papanasam beach, which is considered to have holy waters which wash away sins.
