Drama was the goal so decided to go with the black and white format for these images….

under the Huntington Beach Pier….loved the texture of the sand and the swirly mood it made against the columns….

Over the weekend we had a Full Moon….here in Georgia it is sometimes called a Buck Moon because the buds of little bucks push through during this month and is covered with velvety fur.

A great part of my job is leading Full Moon hikes….and we had over 50 people this time…we take a 3/4 mile hike into the woods and then we pass through a stand of pine trees that led down toward a clay beach….from that little beach we get to watch the moon rise over Lake Hartwell.

Below are a few pictures I took of that experience….

the water rings in the foreground came from a stone being tossed by two kids learning to skip stones…

caught the two little stone skippers motion….their motion was blurred by the 1 sec exposure and I like the story telling effect of that blurr…

artist of all ages were trying to get their special shot of the moon…..

last shot…..and the moon was looking like butter…

oppossum and rabbit….

A dear friend who is a wildlife rehabilitator brought by a few animals that she has been working with…opposums are really wonderful critters….although mainly misunderstood and disliked here in Georgia….but I love them all the same….even caught one smiling at me…

and of course couldn’t forget rabbit….he was so tiny…about the size of a small coffee cup…
