Golden glow of early morning light on waves...
Early morning light on the horizon as waves break over pilings and the shore...
Fall colors of Crepe Myrtle... bokeh from color reflected in metal siding on the wall behind the tree.
A six shot HDR image of the old fire engine in the Cape May Firehouse Museum.
Sunset at Cape May with a distant view of the lighthouse across the way.
Sunrise at the 59th Street Pier in Ocean City... cannot believe I had to get up at 4:10 AM to participate in this photo shoot! This is just one of many images from that morning and is a 30 second exposure while using a VND (Variable Neutral Density) filter.
Another view of the sunrise with the color tweaked to give it a different feel.
Another picture of early morning sunlight on the water... lost count of how many similar images I took!
If you want to view more from the workshop, there is a slide show available that also includes some additional images that I will be posting later on this week if I find the time. Images in the sideshow that were taken with my iPhone start with the image titled "Moon in the sky during sunrise..." and end with the series of images demonstrating a post processing technique I'll talk more about when I post the rest of the images here (or in my other blog).
I do so admire those of you who manage to post regularly. I honestly have no clue how you manage it... probably by being more focused and disciplined about it than I am! One of the reasons I've been missing for the past month or so has to do with having had quite a bit of upheaval in my personal life. Without going into great gory detail, I will just tell you that I'm finally free of a burdensome relationship and am feeling MUCH lighter as a result. Sometimes things just do not work out and that was the case with myself and the guy who has been living with me for the past (almost) 14 years. He has moved out and I am moving on and enjoying myself quite a bit these days.

First of all, Victoria, I am THRILLED to know the burdensome relationship is now...gone! I've been there, so I know what you're feeling now! YAY.
Secondly, I envy anyone who does REAL HDR work, so congratulations. And for getting up early, you've inspired me. There is so much fog here at this time of the year and I really want to get out and catch it on camera. I just have to do it!
It is so nice to meet you Victoria, and welcome to The Creative Exchange! How lucky to be in Cape May! It is really a beautiful place, and what better place for a photo workshop? Each of these images is just stunning. You have captured such beautiful color and light.
Thank you so much for sharing with us today at The Creative Exchange.
Sending you wishes for a wonderful week ahead!

Visiting from "The Creative Exchange". Those sunrises on the Cape May shore are beautiful. Hey...I said "shore" instead of "beach"...can you tell I'm from the 'hood? :)

So enjoyed viewing your photos, morning light is wonderful. I recently heard someone said to rid yourself of clutter and that included relationship. We only need to surround ourselves with positive people.
Me too enjoyed your amazing photos. Wonderful feelings!
:)
Lovely shots!
