Sights from the Ocean

















I have been showing you images from Ocean City, it looks like we were everywhere, but the beach. We did make it and here are some images from the beach and around Ocean City and Assateague Island. The first couple images are from the island. The rules are relaxed there and you get to see folks fishing next to those enjoying the sun and water. I love to capture reflections on water and the canals offer a good chance as the condos block some of the wind. I have seen the Coast Guard practicing water rescues and you can't miss the lifeguards in Ocean City. On this visit, we watched the lifeguards in action as they pulled a person in trouble from the surf. You never know who you will see on the Boardwalk, as Natty Boh walked around shaking hands. One thing you see as you cross the dunes to the beach are the colorful umbrellas. Keep in mind to protect your camera. Sea water and sand are two of the biggest enemies of camera euipment.
