Long Tailed Duck
I was in Sag Harbor and spied this small flock of about ten ducks. They were a species I hadn’t seen around here before. I sat on the Village Wharf and waited for them to get within camera range and took a few photos. I looked up the ducks and found out they were Long Tailed Ducks which come down from Northern Canada to winter over.

Lifting Fog
I woke today to thick fog. After walking the dog and fixing a flat tire I got out to try to capture the feeling of the day. The problem was that the few scenes with thick fog were looking into the sun and the fog was quickly burning off. I then remembered a spot on Mecox Bay that the sun would be to my back and there might still be fog left. The two images are the results the fog is burning off and there is a mood of the expecting day.

Shinnecock Bay
There isn’t much marsh on the bay but there is a strip of grass behind a few mansions. Today the light was right to get a image.

Waves
Wave photos seem to be the new think around the local galleries. Most of the photos are straight forward rolling waves with good surfing breaks. I like a little more drama so I am posting these. Both were taken on a cold day with a strong Northwest wind which creates the drama.

A Couple of Sunsets
It’s been pretty busy the last few months, but I finally got out and did some photography. A couple of Sunset photos. Hope you like them.

Napeague Sunset
I was driving home from Montauk and came to the Napeague overlook to this stunning sunset. I stopped ran out and got a couple of photos.

Sunflowers
We planted sunflowers in the garden this year. In past years we planted them outside the garden fencing and the deer eat the plants. So this year I got a couple of photos of the flowers.

Yellow Swallow Tail Butterfly
This Yellow Swallow Tail Butterfly has been hanging around our butterfly bushes this summer. I finally got the camera out and got a good photo of him. He is easy to recognize because of his broken tail.
