Seashells by the Seashore | Bellingham Photographer

With our rocky shoreline/beaches, it is some times difficult to find the shells amongst the rocks.  And, often times, those shells are broken because of the rocks.

The River | Bellingham Photographer

In what seems like the last day of sunshine around here, I spent the morning with a friend - just driving around and taking photographs.  These are two of the photographs I took... The river was low, so we decided to venture out on the rocky river bed - close to the water - and see what photographs we could take.

Frustrated with not being able to get the sort of photograph I wanted, I walked shin-deep into the river (yes, I still had my Sketchers on) and took the first photo.  The water was cold, and I didn't dare venure any further because the rocks were slippery and I knew I would take a tumble and possibly damage my camera.  The second photograph was taken with me getting as low as possible without soaking every inch of me in river water.  It's always good to remember angles count!

Rolling Water

There was another massive storm that came through the area yesterday. This makes the third storm this week alone. But this time I couldn't resist and decided to head down to Fairhaven Marine Park and see what sort of photographs I could take. While the storm was at its infancy stage, the winds were still quite strong (nearly knocked me over a few times) and the water was really choppy and starting to make that fantastic crashing effect on the rocks. However, it was freezy cold and getting a bit dangerous, so I wasn't able to stay out as long as I really wanted to stay out.
