Saturday afternoon, filling time while waiting to pick up the daughter, thought I’d play with the camera a little. Some selections for your general derision. Enjoy

Shutter Saturday: Hatteras Surfers
Right across the parking lot from the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum is a BEAUTIFUL beach, that has had less than ten people on it every Saturday Morning I’ve been there.
One surfer totally made me as I was taking photos. I wanted to call him Ken, but he had a surfboard, his job is more than beach.
However, I thought you might like to see these since this is one part of my trip to OBX that didn’t flame out.

I’ve never known a cat to have RBF until this one came along. This cat is all shade.

Photo: Chic’s Beach Storm
Recent trip to Chic’s Beach as a front was coming through. Tried a lower angle on this shot to get your eyes to follow down the beach a bit. There are more than a few stories about this place that I could tell, and at least one them involve hoping the folks at 3556 On The Bay where ‘every place is a penthouse’ (If I remember the circa 1985 marketing of the place when it opened) couldn’t see me in the later hours of the night / wee hours of the morning.
That’s all you get, use your imagination.
iPhone 12, can’t remember if I used the Moment app on this or not.

Photo: An Unexpected Dragonfly
When editing photos of the thunderclouds over the weekend, I took this photo as a companion to the VB Convention Center photo from June. The curves complement each other. What I hadn’t expected is my little winged friend in the photo. A happy accident, which I’m happy to share with you. Taken with iPhone 12, edited in Lightroom.

Rt 12, Pea Island Road, Dec 15th 2021
About This Photo:
iPhone 12 4.2mm f/1.6 1/6135
The drive to Rodanthe, on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, is my favorite drive, and this road is the most barren and beautiful stretch of it. If you’ve ever heard of this road, it’s likely because it’s been flooded out after a hurricane.
On the left side about fifty yards beyond the dunes, is The Atlantic Ocean. On the right, between 25 and fifty yards beyond the light poles, is the Ablemarle Sound. This is a narrow and salty piece of land, and it’s one of my happy places.
