Returning from Washington Oaks State Park yesterday, I encountered a threatening sky that I thought was stunning. Pulling off the highway in the opposite direction from my route, I found a little place to park. The body of water here is the Intracoastal (which most people mispronounce as the Intercoastal).

Washington Oaks SP features formal gardens on the west side of the road, and access to the beach on the east side. I've not been there in a over a year and was surprised to discover that the beach side had been closed all this time to recover from extensive storm damage inflicted over a year ago. The ranger told me that most of the dunes had been washed away, the parking lot sank, and more. He did tell me that it should be opened again soon having undergone natural and man aided recovery in the interval. So, having driven for about an hour to get there, I decided to make the most of it and chose these live oaks to photograph. (P67, 55mm, Delta 100 film)

For reasons that no longer apply, I have been unwilling to venture out with the camera late in the day. Being retired, now, I've begun to make some forays to Little Talbot Island SP at around 6PM that offer both a quality and direction of light that is really attractive. Here are three scenes from that place taken on September 12th. (P67, 55mm, Red 25A, Delta 100)

Thankfully, in addition to readily available beaches lots of people use for recreation, there also several nearby state parks that remain semi-wild. Little Talbot Island is one of them, and it's in the process of recovering from last years hurricane that decimated dunes and sea oats. Much is cordoned off, but it's easy for the camera to ignore the barriers allowing the lens to peer beyond them. (Film)
