Waves were large last night when I shot the "Vortex" posted below. Got a little wet but did not get too close to shelf. These waves can hit you hard and really ruin your day....always watch the incoming and move before they come in.
Yesterday at Port Crescent State Park day park...waves...splash and beach! Near Port Austin, Michigan. September 19th, 2015.
Another shot of my son on Portreath beach in Cornwall, breaking the waves with his wellington boots in the late evening sunlight. I really like the rim lighting around his body.
Off to help out at the BoA photo group exhibition this morning, so will hopefully catch up with everyone later. I've sold one print so far!!
Ten waves in one shot - you may disagree but I counted that many and I am sticking to the count. Taken yesterday when the weather was sooooooooo much better!
Taken at Portreath in Cornwall, Cropped because I prefer wide angle, I had to zoom in to avoid vignetting.
Taken using a Nikon D40, 18-55mm lense set at 38mm, tripod, ND4, Circular Polariser, ND8 grad, f/32 exp= 0.77sec
Waving Wednesday
It’s Wednesday morning at Catcott, as the morning pick up goods collects an empty mineral wagon from the small goods yard.
Standing on the bridge, Waving Willy waves over at his brother Waving Waving Wally who is driving the steam lorry over there in the distance beyond the ground frame (you can just see Wally in the cab). Like Willy, Wally also waves all the time, even in his sleep by all accounts. This can make for driving the steam lorry quite a challenge, it requiring at least two hands, sometimes three to keep it going in a straight line. But Wally manages to steer and even stoke the fire with just one hand. Champion.
Driver and part time thespian at the local amateur dramatics society, Blessed Brian booms over to Willy from the locomotive, “hello dear boy, lovely to see you”, as he presumes Waving Willy’s wave is for him rather than Waving Wally on the steam lorry. But that’s okay, because Willy has enough waves for everyone. And Blessed Brian loves any excuse to boom with his deep baritone voice.
Meanwhile Bob Geeza cat waves his long bushy tail in response to all the waving. Such a clever cat.

Hiking on a glacier is one of coolest experience I've ever had. Vatnajökull is a really beautiful place that sadly will disappear very soon...
Another one from May-ish :)
I like how the edit thing came out. I'm trying to challenge myself to edit and upload a few things from a long time ago so yep! Expect more uploads pretty soon. School is killing me like omg I can't. Junior year is filled with projects, homework, essays, vocabulary tests and everything you could ever imagine that concerns education. I've missed Flickr a lot tho! :)
Heat Wave!
Oh my gosh! It’s so hot!
Feel the temperature soar.
We’re having days of 100,
Very often, much more.
The grass is all crinkly,
The creek’s drying up.
The plants beg for water.
Let me fill up a cup
With sparkling fresh liquid.
Watch it froth from the tap.
Okay, I am yawning,
In the mood for a nap.
I will turn on the fan,
Making sure it’s on high.
Feel the breeze on my face
As I let out a sigh.
Hear the soothing swish-swish sounds
As they lull me to sleep.
Never mind all my house chores,
Till tomorrow they’ll keep.
Lay my head on a pillow
With a book on my chest.
Though, it’s doubtful I’ll read it
Cause it’s time for some rest
Toogie 2024
Thought I would drag up some of my old photos taken about 3 years ago. These were taken with our first ever digital camera, a point and shoot Konica.
On a quiet day at Snæfellsnes, you just sit at the beach and stare at the sea. The harmony is perfect !
So re-posted some photos from a month ago with a few filters I've sort of developed (and b/w). I think my PP has come a fair way since then - images may not be realistic but I definitely find them more interesting.
