I saw this wondeful light streaming through the clouds on my way home from work and I just had to stop. I was in delight taking shots from all different angles totally enjoying life, when all of a sudden my camera stopped working. The mirror will not flip up. Yep my 40D is in for repairs again. Though I am very grateful to have it under warrenty, needless to say I have a heavy heart. I can only hope for fog for the next 3 weeks. Ok just kidding.
Last picture of 2017 is the last sunset of the year. This closes out four straight years of doing a picture a day. On to year five!
The annual Canvey Island Bus Rally took place on Sunday 8 October 2017, with DT29 making its first appearance at the event. Before the busy day commenced there was an opportunity to take the vehicle along the Eastern Esplanade for a few pictures. DT29 is seen at Shellbeach Road. At the event DT29 would carry 300 visitors on the seventeen trips it made between the Museum site and Labworth.
Looking toward Shell Beach from the oceanside path to Avila Beach and above Pirate's Cove. No, guys, you can't see any naked girls on the nude beach from here.
A willet (Tringa semipalmata) walks along the beach on Shell Key across the channel from Pass-A-Grille, Florida. Shell Key is a beautiful, natural, hotel and road free, barrier Island that is protected as a County Nature preserve.
Shell Beach, a fishing village, located in the wetlands where Louisiana’s St. Bernard Parish splinters into the Gulf of Mexico. Although only 25 miles east of New Orleans, the area feels as remote as anywhere: insular communities of stilted homes and weather-beaten trailers that locals refer to, with no shortage of pride, as “the end of the world.” Most inhabitants can trace their lineage back to the isleños, or islanders, as the Canary Island settlers who established the region in the late 1700s were known. Commercial shrimpers have a daunting routine, out in the Gulf for days: trawling by night, sleeping by day, an equilibrium-tweaking typical outing. The brown shrimp that have provided so much for these families over the years, homes, vehicles, food and clothing , a way of life.
The 70-200mm/f2.8 on a crop sensor is OK I guess... (!!!!!)
Nothing special about the breaks last night but add a gorgeous sunset and it's always worth getting some shots. I can't wait to start renting the big boys and going on surf specific photography trips.
Just a super quick trip to Lightroom for contrast.

Not really. But the fast moving marine layer about 45 minutes after sunset over the Shell Beach mansions sure did make for an incredible sky. The sky was boring and the sunset was nothing to write home about, but I took the corner from Avila towards my house in Pismo Beach last night and looked for the first possible coastal access. I sprinted with my tripod to the edge of this cliff and just hoped I'd luck out in getting the exposure right. I definitely have some neat new places to shoot and a new route to work after coming across this location.
Lightroom 3 for a tiny bit of fill light

Stupid dates! Don't get me wrong, I love printing the dates--they've become so popular. I just think someone so tech-savvy as to buy a camera with the date printing option (as I am!) should be able to set them correctly.
