Went back to the beach on Sunday morning – a little later than yesterday and was surprised to see the same guy just getting ready to push off.  Told him the shot turned out great and he said I thought so – I am a photographer.  WOW – did not see that coming.  I asked what kind of photography and he said a wedding photographer.  The was no where near as amazing as yesterday  morning

Was really happy to see that this picture made the popular page on 365project.

When I go out to get the newspaper in the morning., I always check the clouds and the sky to see if there might be some good photo ops.    Since the sky looked interesting after the storms we had last night, I headed out for a walk after breakfast.  As I got close to the beach, I noticed a guy parking his truck.  He had a kayak on the back.  I started taking pictures and then he unloaded his kayak and all his fishing gear.  I said hello and isn’t it a beautiful morning.  He saw me taking pictures and said wait a minute and you should be able to get a great shot of me heading off into the sunrise and …… he was right.  I also liked this picture of him checking to make sure he had everything he needed for a morning of fishing.

It was late before I could go for a walk tonight n search of my photo of the day.  As I got close to the beach, I noticed the heron flying around and thought – darn, I missed it again.  Then I noticed it landed on the dock.  So I stopped and stood still for a minute and then slowly and quietly crept as close to the water as I could.  Took several pictures before he took off.  This is the best of the bunch.  It was dark and I did not have my telephoto lens with me – but it’s closer than the other night.    Guess I will have to take the big lens with me until I get a good shot of this guy.  Maybe the third time will be the charm

Now where did I dock my boat?

What a beautiful day and a beautiful evening for a walk.  When I got to the first beach, I saw the heron fly by.  Wow that’s the second time that happened to me.  Oh well – one of these daysI will be able to get a photo.  Then I walked over to the marina.   Sat one the end of the pier – took some pictures and then I looked over at one of the piers and noticed the heron standing on the pier.  I only managed to get one photo before he took off.  When I uploaded it, I asked my husband what should I title it and he came up with where did i dock my boat.  Perfect
