so this morning i went down to the beach to see what was going on….
(well, i guess it is a while since i’ve been down there… and it is still sort-of holiday-time ….. i guess…)
By The Sea
a bit of arty-smarty B&W…
mid-week afternoon .. snooping around a cafe…
the calm before the holiday storm descends.
Teeth!! they’re everywhere! they’re everywhere!!
Here in this coastal town we are visited by whales every year. Whales inspire love and respect.
Sharks, on the other hand, often inspire fear. They have big teeth and they eat humans … BUT the only recorded shark killing here was 92 years ago.
So if you are a “shark hunter” and “big game hunter”, why not set up an attraction for the tourists about sharks featuring their scary teeth … and of course include the whales too.
All your questions answered…
Sun Set New Moon
The night of the new moon – very still, very quiet – as the sun silently dips below the horizon.

Minding the Baby
The Loom and The Pinkie
COMMUNITY SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
TWO ESSENTIAL TECHNIQUES EVERY PHOTOGRAPHER SHOULD KNOW:
1. THE LOOM.
One must always ensure one’s presence is noted by looming over the shot.
This is especially important if the foto is meant to be clever and/or arty.
2. THE PINKIE
The use of the pinkie finger at the moment of taking the shot adds emphasis and is always encouraged.

Winter end-of-day
The end of a winter day in the Bay.
In my backyard it’s 4pm … the sun is lowering itself into the western sky.
The air is suddenly sharper and so is the light.
Time for the balmy sunlit warmth to give way to the crisp cold of the night.
Time to go inside where it’s warm – and think about feeding everybody!
YES? … you were saying??
Winter in The Bay
glittering winter sun, balmy lunchtime … not so bad, huh?
