Description
Hello all!
Well, I was trying to sleep but couldn�t cause my dog Candi was snoring loudly on my bed (lol) so I thought I would upload a pic since all my girls are off the comp hehe.
For the past three years we have gone to this beautiful beach in St Joe Michigan.
I never grow tired of it or taking pics of it. It�s a magical place, maybe to me cause I have fond childhood memories there when my Grandmother used to take me as a little girl. This particular day Mike, Chrissy and I had set out to go fishing on the pier ( Chrissy ,caught a huge 7 lb salmon on a friends boat the day before -that tasted amazing).
I knew she might grow board as we were going to be there all day so at the last minute threw her inner tube in my Mother's borrowed car. The fish were not biting and so after a few hours, I noticed the waves were growing stronger on the lake so walked her out to the beach and snapped this as she entered the waves fearless ( after all no sharks here like at the beaches at home). Mike remained faithful to his fishing post at the end of the pier ( you can barely just see him in this shot beyond the St Joe lighthouse). I liked the compo of this one so thought I put it up. Taken with my Canon rebel xt.
Thanks for all your time and comments!
Love you all!
((( BIG hugs !! )))

A perfect capture Kimmers, looks like a gorgeous day of fun!
Great scene and brilliant comp. Very dramatic.
Wonderful capture!!!
What a wonderfull summer capture. Love the compo too.
What a beautiful shot Kimmers! Well done!
What a beautiful place; fantastic image Kimmie :)
Just awesome!! Here in Sweden we have had almost no summer, just rain and winds. I have not bathed in the sea even once. So för me your silvery beach resembles heaven on earth!
That is a real great vintage scene as I only know from books or older movies! Most excellent work!!
Excellent POV, DOF, lighting and clarity in this watery photograph. Really like the waves hitting the shore.
Lovely composition here and you have caught everything beautifully. A super photo.
This is an incredible photograph! Beautiful DOF and the perspective is phenomenal. So much to see in this beach scape, and the water, with the waves is fantastic! This photograph has greatly captured the sense of movement, and done a great deal of justice to this special place. Thank you for sharing that little bit of what this place represents, as your words are truly complimenting to the photograph, and give it a warm feel. Beautiful lighting and great contrast! Thank you for sharing this with us~! Very special indeed!
I recognize this light house! Very pretty image!
Pretty choppy waves on a lake, but I've never seen the great lakes either??? This is a wonderful image especially with your daughter and your husband in the shot and top it off with your childhood memories, how could it get better????

This perfect composition captures the beachy mood perfectly. I love how the eye flows from the lighthouse to the sailboat to the wave and finally to the girl with the tire, wonderful!
