Gone Fishing

Gone Fishing on the Great South Bay

After a crazy hot summer, we suddenly experienced some sort of "fall preview" during the second half of August. Low temps and cloudy skies prevailed for almost a whole week and the beaches remained pleasantly empty. Shot this on a calm and peaceful Wednesday afternoon :)

Golden

10 minutes after sunrise

My absolutely favorite time of the day is the hour before and the hour after sunrise. Unfortunately I am not enough of an early morning person to get myself out of bed all that often. But recently it has gotten a lot easier as the sun rises later and later. Today I made it to the beach on time and about 10 minutes after the sun had risen in an almost cloudless sky, the world seemed drenched in gold. My heart skipped a beat when I spotted this lone angler who made for the perfect accessory to this shot.
