Welcome To The Sunday View

Kim and I are home from our quick overnight trip. We were in Atlantic City New Jersey. It was a nice getaway and we had a good time. But the weather could have certainly been better. We got rain, rain and then more rain. And talk about fog?! 

I have a lot to share with you but for now I would like to share two snapshots that will sum up how quickly mother nature shifted gears on us. The first is from yesterday afternoon upon our arrival to our suite and the second is from this morning. The two are not identical but are of the same general view.

A total 180° huh? Of course the reason is due to the warm air that rolled in with the rain. It topped out at about 62° F (around 17° C) in Atlantic City. In fact it's warm here at home right now. I even have some of the windows open to air out the house a little.

Welcome To The Tuesday View

For today's photo I am stepping back in time. Well about two and a half weeks anyway. When I first looked at this I really didn't like it a whole lot. But somehow the half silhouette thing that is going on grew on me.

Welcome To The Daily View

Today as I continue to share photos from our long weekend in Atlantic City I would like to show you this shot of a boat traveling from the ocean into the Absecon Inlet. And if you look real close you might be surprised at you see on the back of it. At least I was.

Welcome To The Daily View

Today I am carrying on with yesterday's theme. This yet another photo from Atlantic city New Jersey and like the empty boat docks seems a bit lonely. Spring however is a mere hours away as I type this and with it hopefully warmer weather. And when it does I hope to return to AC and report back with some nice sunny and fun filled shots. But until then...

Over the past few years I have been drawn to this scene time and again. If that bench could talk it would probably have a good story or two. And perhaps some not so good ones.

I cropped this in Photoshop and converted it to black and white with the help of Silver Efex Pro 2. Part of the wonderful NIK Collection of filters available at no charge from Google. Click here to find out more.

Welcome To The Daily View

Today I am sharing a photo that I made during our overnight trip to Atlantic City New Jersey. This is where private boats dock at Gardner's Basin just off the Absecon Inlet. You can see the Atlantic City Aquarium in the background. Looking kind of lonely isn't it?
