Seas and winds were a bit too high today for getting our little boat out off-shore, so we hit the beach. Today's beach camp with Joy and Bliss.
This was the one month anniversary of our wedding, so we went out to dinner at a dockside sailor bar and then went to check on Maggie Too's moorings as the sun was going down. My best hat blew into the water (but we rescued it with a boat hook :-) ).
We took an off-road drive out to the beach in the evening, just for fun. Sunset over the marsh - You can see "Teaches' Hole" (where Blackbeard was killed) in the distance. Cool place to sail.
Nancy and the truck on the night beach at the southern end of the island - very remote and very pretty. Don't get stuck here or the tide will take you away!! A kinda romantic one month anniversary for two old folk. You can't do this in Pennsylvania.
More later, Red Gods willin'.

A few from my new Rokinon 35mm F1.2 Manual lens. I scored a good deal on it. Being patient on Ebay pays off sometimes. Saw this Rokinon for 225 dollars. I decided to make an offer and figured he would want to hagle a bit, so I offered him 180 dollars, AND HE ACCEPTED IT. Total with tax was 197 dollars to my door. I was a very happy camper.

Rocca Scaligera on Lake Garda in the town of Sirmione, Italy
Cold an damp but got a Pano. Below is the low res version. The town is basically a land spur that jets out into Lake Garda. The view below is almost to the end from an upper floor of the medical castle. Just sat looking at the view for awhile..... Hand Held Pano.

A couple of my sweet granddaughter. Taken with the Viltrox 85mm F1.8 Full Frame version 1. I love that lens even though it is heavy and I was upset because right after I bought it they came out with the APSC lighter version. But now I just love that beast version 1 and I suspect because of the crop factor it has some of the softness in the corners cropped out. Now, I don't think I would trade it for the apsc version.
