forgotten frames

We are stuck in the first artic blast of the season hits Wrightsville Beach .  It dipped to 25 degrees with a 13kt N wind this morning.  The water temp is still hovering at 50 and no waves to speak of.  I decided to change up the title, not sure if i like it but it will stay for now.  Also threw up a couple frames that somehow never made it off the card.  These are back from October.  AR how bouts some more tropic pics.  hugh said, "what up?"

waiting for something

messing with the 0's and 1's



illustrator shapes

everyone that does this i guess get the message sometime.  "you have reached to mb limit."  so i got rid of some unnecessary photo albums and freed some storage and waited to see what would happen.  meanwhile illustrator and photoshop experiments oh and fishing for reds, stripers and specks filled the void of surfing while the flu runs amuck in the house.  water temps have finally dropped into the upper 50's.  i checked the photos storage today and now its at 5100mb from 1000mg, go figure.
i guess i am gonna keep posting now.  thanks for checking in.  more to come soon.

focus on something

Free parking at the WB at least 'til March.  Seems like months since waves.  The Northeast, however, is climbing out of snow from a Nor'easter one week after the destruction from Sandy. 

Sunday with Hurricane Sandy

Sunday at Wrightsville Beach the winds came around as Hurricane Sandy continued up the Atlantic.  Photos are blurry and out of focus but I am to tired to care, just got some for posting.

view from the dunes

My boy Al and I made a road trip yesterday as Hurricane Sandy was cruising up the coastline.  We found these slabs and had it all to ourselves for about an hour, then shared them with 15 of our newest friends for the next 5 hours.  I can barely type today.

Crystal Pier Wednesday was a treat.  The forecast of 4.5ft every 14secs and NE 10-15kts had Masonboro firing but crowded while across the inlet we had the Southend all to ourselves.  The wind had held off for most of the morning.  There were about 20 of us spread out to the jetty.  You could get all you wanted with fighting to get it.  I broke out the Pentax sp500 for a couple film shots and got the rest in the Nikon D5000.
