Just experimenting with different techniques. Trying to find a style that I can call my own, but could not decide what I liked better. Every time I visit them I like a different one better.

both on shore and in the water. It's also an area where fishermen take
their boats out to the giant Lake Borgne, it is along the Mississippi River
-Gulf Outlet (MRGO) which is an inlet the leads to the Gulf Of Mexico.

During the week of storms, Scott had the good idea to go out to the beach and shoot the (expected) gigantic waves.

A similar shot to another one I recently posted, I like this composition with the horizon a little better and with the sun passing behind the clouds there is a little bit more soft detail in the foreground.
I'm also on Facebook!

Charly was our first dog. She was Husky mixed with Golden Retriever (Goberian). Charly had surgery this week to remove her spleen. We hope this will give her a few more years with our little family.
