I went out hoping for a nice sunset last night on Rehoboth Bay. The colors didn’t materialize as I had hoped but it was a pleasant scene nonetheless.

There is quite a massing of Large Milkweed Bugs on, appropriately enough, milkweed in my yard now. Their bright orange and black coloring is quite eye catching.
The great thunderstorm I shot a few days ago had to be seen in black and white which is how I saw it when I photographed it.
Thunder storms popped up this afternoon north and south of Lewes. I found this tall storm reflected in Canary Creek just before sunset.
Late day fun on Lewes beach. This photograph was taken just about a year ago under a compelling sky.
Sometimes the light works well and hangs on long enough for several possible subjects to be photographed. As Kevin and I teach in our seminars, its all about light and moment. Without the right light a subject even as nice as the inner lighthouse at Cape Henlopen can be a dull subject but when light paints the scene…well that’s a different story. Such was the case last Saturday evening.
There was a persistent onshore wind over the weekend that kicked up the normally docile summer Atlantic into a fall-like condition. Clouds and sunset light made the scene all the more picturesque.
There is a different beauty in a black and white photograph. I like the action of skim boarding and the frozen wave in the starkness of a B&W image which brings out texture and form so much more.
The texture of these leaves with rain drops was what pulled me out into my garden yesterday morning in the rain. I saw this as a black and white image and the photograph is as I imagined it to be.
