The Heights at Dusk

The Heights at Dusk
Photo-A-Day #1241

Today we spent a nice morning with the family having breakfast, lazed around the house for a bit and then headed to the beach. Eva once again enjoyed the heck out of the water, except it was a little colder than she likes. Well, in a week we will have tons of water that is warm for her to play in when we head to Florida.

After the beach our friends Neil and Andrea came over. Andrea and I worked on setting up a blog for her photography. She takes some wonderful photos that are on Stock Photography sites and she is now looking to start a project taking shots of people’s boats out on the water because many people would like a shot of their boat under sail but have no way of getting the shot so she does the shooting and will sell the photos. Here blog is called Wheeler Images and she has just started it so we need to work on tweaking the theme and getting some content on it but it will soon be filled with some wonderful photos.

After dinner, which was burgers and dogs (Bubba Burgers with Sweet Vidalia Onions in the patties and Nathan’s bigger than the bun hot dogs.), I saw the sun was setting and the sky looked really nice out over the water. We took a bunch of shots and the one above made the cut, the one below was also one I liked. I should have had a tripod but I put the camera right on the wall to steady it and that worked pretty well too, wish I thought of that first I could have gotten better shots of the fisherman on the rocks.

1st Falmouth Paddle of 2008

A bit foggy

This morning Allison and I got up early and headed over tot he Falmouth Heights Beach. We loaded the boats onto Dad’s truck and took them over to the beach. We set off and headed towards Falmouth Harbor. We paddled along the Falmouth Heights beach, out past the swim markers and down to the harbor.

Past the Casino

Along the way we watched cormorants skim the waves, a large jellyfish laze about and fishermen trying their luck on the jetties.

Entering Falmouth Harbor

Once in the Falmouth Harbor we paddled in and among the boats of various sizes. It was pretty early so there weren’t many people out and about. However there was this one seagull that was claiming a boat as its own.

After a while in the Harbor we turned about and headed for home.

Leaving Falmouth Harbor

When we got back to the start of Heights Beach we saw Dad pulling his truck out of the street next to ours, he drove down to the end of the beach and parked. We paddled up to shore and got out. It was a nice leisurely paddle for the day.
