Panther Beach black and white
Well, I planned on a shot at Hole in the Wall beach based on the moon phase, but conditions skewered that plan.
Walking into the beach I passed a bearded guy who I thought might be Patterson. From his icon photo I expected a tall lanky guy with a camera and a bandana. This guy only had the beard so I thought it probably wasn't him. As it turned out, he spent the evening at the pet rocks so I think it was him.
The tide was so high and the waves were just pummeling the rocks I wanted to climb so I decided to just shoot the waves washing up on the beach. I'd never seen them so far up the beach. Even though conditions were pretty good for photography, I left figuring I had nothing in the camera worth anything. This was the best of the lot, I think. The color was uninspiring so I converted to black and white.
