I haven't gotten up before dawn in quite a while. I did today. I just missed the sun's leading edge, but the heron who showed up compensated nicely! Serendipity doo dah! ;-)
It's been a chore to get to Big Talbot Island SP for the past several months due to road work delays. Yesterday, though, I felt patient enough to wait for the looooong light to change allowing northbound traffic to use the one lane road. I hadn't expected so many cars, but I was able to get the very last parking spot at the trail head leading to Black Rock Beach. The black rocks are actually a clay formation that is unique to this area I believe. Here are several photographs from that place.
I realize I have so many old negatives I've not printed nor even scanned that I may never have to expose another frame of film! Of course, I will, but I'm not in any hurry. This first was taken near Muscoot Farm, an interpretive farm near Katonah, NY in 2000. The other three are from Harriman Park taken that same year.
