Life’s a Beach
So frigid weather sends me back to the archive. Here’s a selection of 2MP jpegs shot early in my digital period with the family Kodak at the beach, with a little modern editing in Capture One. Click any image to see them all enlarged.
Moon Over the Atlantic
A Day at the Beach
Taken several days before the public beaches were shut down here in Florida, a couple of weeks ago, now…
Walking on Water?
I think this is the same Great Blue Heron as in a few posts ago, or the same mistaken identification.
(These pictures were shot a couple of weeks ago – everything’s shut now and we’re complying with attempts to halt the spread of Covid-19 by not going out except for necessities).

Leo Carillo State Park, Malibu, California
The beach at Leo Carillo State Park leaves many tidal pools with various creatures in them. we clambered through caves and over rocks to see them and I took lots of still life shots of what we saw.

The French Lieutenant’s Woman?
After Christmas morning coffee in Palm Springs, we drove up to Santa Monica. We arrived before the hotel was ready for us and killed time walking down the beach to Venice and back.

Brightening Brighton
And now a return to some of my father’s Kodachromes from the 1950s (see the full story here). Let’s finish off the UK with a couple of family shots from Brighton. In the first, my mother is perfectly radiant in prime blue and red while all about her is dreary, monochromatic gray (requiring absolutely no Photoshop fiddling on my part – this is virtually out of the camera). In the second shot, my father chomps on a piece of Brighton Rock, a bright pink log of pure sugar with the words Brighton Rock in red running right the way through from one end to the other so you see them wherever you are in the days-long it takes to get through it. Note that everyone at “the beach” is fully clothed.

Dune
This is not only a cliché shot, it’s become a cliché within my library of vacation snaps. But what are you going to do? Sand dunes, fences and shadows demand to be photographed!
