Silver Lining

A sliver of light and color at the end of a drab and stormy early December day

I know it's been a while since I've been posting one of those ocean shots, but once in a while I just have to sprinkle one in...Here, the storm clouds gave way to a small band of orange at the end of the day. I just loved the speck of otherworldly red in the sky, but oh boy was it cold! I specifically drove down with tripod and all my gear to take photographs, and this is the only (& handheld) picture I took before running back to my car shivering like crazy!

Grey and Sand

Rainy skies at Robert Moses Beach

As I have said before, I won't ever get tired of taking pix at the beach. I love the beach when it is stormy but warm like today. If you look closely, you can still see the life guard towers lying in the sand - for the first time in history, the beaches were open on Columbus Day weekend, with temperatures reaching 87 degrees this past Monday! Now it has somewhat cooled off but it was still warm enough to walk along the beach in a T-shirt today.
