Kathy & I spent the week leading up to Memorial Day at Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. HHI is our “go-to” beach for a nice, relaxing vacation.
As I had hoped to do, I bribed Kathy with good food and some wine from home to convince her to eat in a couple of evenings so we could enjoy – and I could photograph – the beach at sunset. She’s such a good sport! 😉
Capturing the water in the evening light often results in images like these that just ooze peace and quiet. I had a little extra incentive to come up with some good images this time, as we have a few walls in our new place that need some art. I even made a few verticals with that specifically in mind, but those will need to wait for a blog post since not too many people I know use their monitors in the vertical position. Although it might make a nice phone or tablet wallpaper. Hmmmm…. 🙂
I was a little slack with my posting and processing the last few weeks, but I have a lot of new photos to process and a number of them that I am looking forward to sharing!
OMG, I had no idea the ocean could be that calm. Good job as usual!
Thanks, Donna. The water was fairly calm, and I was able to make it look even smoother by the way I took the photo.
She’s a good sport only due to bribery? Come on Tom but then again I’ve been on both sides: bribed and briber. Love the photo and it’s good idea.
Not at all, Monte. But everyone appreciates a little incentive! Thanks!
Such a beautiful image Tom. Fine art no less.
Thanks, Cedric. I’m looking forward to using up some ink on this image!
No unique comments here Tom – but just agreeing with the others that this is one beautiful shot. I particularly like the soft streaks of the foreground.
Thanks, Mark. The play of the lines and shadows is what attracted me to this photo.
I agree with the others – this is one beautiful shot and it should look nice on your wall.
Thanks, Ken. I’m hoping this will make a nice print. I think it will.
I, for one, have nothing new to add. Quite lovely! I’ll have to stop by your new digs to see it on the wall. Hint! Hint! 😉
We’re definitely long overdue. Let’s set something up! 🙂
