It's a cold early winter's day as I walk the boardwalk passing through the dunes to the beach. My mind turns to the many times in the past that I have walked this same boardwalk in much warmer weather. . . .
One of my favorite things about hiking in Newfoundland in July is when I find carpets of blooming crackerberry. I never quite feel like my photos do it justice, but this is one of my favorites.
Have I mentioned how awesome Newfoundland is? The East Coast Trail, which follows around the edge of the Avalon Peninsula, has some of my favorite hiking in the world. There's a new view around every corner, plus icebergs, puffins, whales, foxes... If you've never been, I highly recommend it.
My favorite shot from a sunset last week here in Bellingham. Going to be releasing this and others from the past few months on my #fineartphotography website. Stay tuned!
The first are called Jimmie Stix. Which I had never heard of before getting them. It is a pretzel stick wrapped in peanut butter then chocolate. If anything on earth could be called "my jam," it would be this. Very good. Would get again.
The second...I can't quit them. I love me some candy cigarettes. Sure, they are just a stick of pure sugar. But...I love them so much.

In the south of Moduland near the entrance, a pretty little beachfront boardwalk is laid out. Little booths, balloon stands, and other fun activities line this walkway.
Bought a second hand 42.5mm 1.7 lens for my ancient 4/3 Lumix, and this is the first try out at portrait photography. My daughter yesterday at Shoreham Beach, the same location as the previous 2 images.
Two images taken at Shoreham Boardwalk, Sussex, UK last spring. Both handheld, same time, same camera, from the same place. One max zoom and the other max wide angle. Camera used: Canon Powershot SX50 HS with 50 X zoom, Ultra Wide Angle, 24-1200mm lens.
The wonders of:
a) modern superzoom bridge cameras
and
b) long lens distance compression.
I usually follow back, & love boosts.
