Photographing the Great White Egret

I have been trying to get a photograph of a Great White Egret with my 4x zoom, compact, digital camera.  However this large, gorgeous wader is as elusive as the perfect wave.  That said, I have had some nice rides while body surfing and I did manage to get some out of focus photos of [...]

Various Forms of Artist Inspiration at the Beach & Sound

I’m working on finding inspiration. Here are some color and shape studies that I got of the beach and the sound while trying to get the creative juices flowing (it’s one thing to keep working on an existing piece, but it is goal of this trip to get ideas for something all new): Share on [...]

Images of Vacation. . . No Great White Egrets Yet

I’ve tried to get photos of pelicans, egrets, a gray catbird and even a mockingbird but with no success.  I do have pictures of a North Carolina Wren and a rabbit who lives on the sound.  I also have some nice photos of my family and of my kayak trip.  At the moment I’m trying [...]

Getting Ready

While I wish that I had all of my work photographed before I got to my interview at the gallery on Sunday, I’m pretty excited at how well everything is going.  The photographer’s work is great and the local print/copy place is fantastic, too.  Actually, it has all been a bargain.  Pete, the photographer charges [...]
