The Ocean Beckons at Devereux Beach

This image comes from the storm that came to shore on March 7th and didn’t leave us until the 9th.  The Nor’Easter had incredible power and displayed it with waves that easily crashed over the causeway.  I went out as much as I could and tried to capture the incredible scenes of nature’s power.

By March 9th, the storm had finally pushed away from shore but its tail end continue to send wave after wave crashing to shore.  I had hoped to make my way to Devereux beach to capture the waves but Ocean Avenue had been closed due to the dangers of crossing […]

Crashing Waves at Greystone Beach

You know things are bad when posting an image of crashing waves after a long and brutal storm actually cheers me up and helps me forget about the miserable cold outside with snow still on the ground.  This particular image was taken on Saturday, March 9th after that long storm finally moved off but seemed to still be churning up a significant amount of wave action in its wake.

Day 4 – Curling Waves at Devereux Beach

I started off at Bass Rock Lane and then headed to Preston Beach where I got a cool shot with the anchor (image is ‘in the queue’). […]

Experimental Friday – Tilt Shift on Devereux Beach

Another entry for Experimental Friday and another attempt with the borrowed tilt shift lens.  After shooting the playground, I decided to try my hand at the causeway and the seal embedded in the concrete.  By using this special lens, I was able to keep the lamp posts in the distance lined up straight while still playing with the plane of focus and keeping the guard rail out of the frame.  Won’t be too much longer before the beach is packed as we cool off from the heat of Summer…
