p.1 #1 · Various Shots from the Beach


Just a few more from Dauphin Island.

Birds were hard to find this time,but was able to find a few.

Took some shots from a fishing trip as well. Learned that shooting from a fast moving boat takes a lot of practice

Your suggestions, comments and critiques are most appreciated.

Thank you for looking and hope you enjoy.

Birdie

You and the beach make a great couple Birdie, for you............life is a beach

#1 Ha, that is quite a display, like it exploded! Nice work on subject separation from BG with the blur
#2 great lesson on proper use of fill flash, perfect balance and exposure, nailed it!
#3 The floating and flying 'motherships'
#4 I like the presentation a lot on this one, nice play on depth here
#5 shrimp for dinner?
#6 nice find
#7 icing on the cake...........just gorgeous!

Excellent work, Birdie. All shots are fantastic...so much so that I can't choose a favorite.

Nice! Bird shots are great but my pick is actually the trawler shot with the birds. Quintessential Gulf Coast!

I even made it to Dauphin Island on the big bike trip last year. Very birdy pace...

Thanks Dorian ! The birds were a bit scarce this year, seems like something is changing on the island, but not sure what.

Great series Birdie My stunner list 1, 4-7.

I wonder if you considered cropping #4 to the vertical?

You got my vote.

Wonderful set, but there are some that really stand out to me...the detail and expression on that first one, the perspective and colors on the 4th, and oh that last one...all wonderful, but those really caught my eye.
