Sunrise on Ocracoke

Last July our family, along with one of our neighbors, journeyed to Ocracoke Island on the Outer Banks of North Carolina to camp at the State Park. The first evening we arrived, my neighbor and I decided we would get up early and take some pictures of the sunrise on the beach. Now, I’m definitely NOT a morning person, but I am so happy I did not let the opportunity pass. There is NOTHING like seeing the sunrise on the beach, if you haven’t already seen one, I suggest you add it to your bucket list.

Below are some of the shots I captured.





My Beautiful Daughter!

Last Friday, I had the pleasure of spending the day with my awesome daughter.  We declared it Mommy/Daughter day and we had a blast. We played putt-putt, went bowling, had ice cream, went out to lunch and got her hair cut.  After the haircut I couldn't resist taking pictures of her.  Here are my two favorites!

Fireworks

Over the last month or so my work schedule has not allowed me to post some images I've taken.  So, let's start with fireworks from The Fourth of July and catch up on some posts :)  

The Fourth of July fireworks have ALWAYS been a challenge for me.  But, this year, I challenged myself to take my tripod and get some good shots of the fireworks. We were closer than normal to the fireworks this year, so I had to only get shots of the fireworks in the sky, I couldn't include any foreground.  Here are some of the shots. Enjoy!
