  • Shutter Saturday: September 9th, 2023

    The leading lines were just too tempting. This is from the Boat Ramp on Shore Drive at the Lesner Bridge.

    Taken with iPhone 12. That’s my daily driver now, it’s a better camera than my T5i.

    Also, much less conspicuous than a big black camera for street photography, where I need more practice.

  • Photo: Pungo Ferry Bridge at Sunset

    Kim and I take the long drive down to Knotts Island every so often to get out of the house, as one does when you work from home. Beautiful Sunset yesterday, I decided to take a slight detour to the Pungo Ferry Boat Landing and see if there was anything worth capturing.

    Turns out there was.

  • Photo: Oreo Is 24/7 Shade

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

  • Photo: Oreo is getting sick of your games

    Human, this is clearly mine. Stop the BS.

  • 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.

  • Cat Dad Can’t Come To The Phone Right Now

    Not exactly a lap cat, but lap-adjacent.

    Pic taken by the wife, who finds it amusing to snap photos of your favorite idiot when he dozes off.

  • Lesner Bridge, July 9th, 2022

    Cloudy Day at Lesner. I happen to think those are great days for taking a camera around. Enjoy.

    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.
