Where's Wendy? Under the Stars!

I set out Thursday night (early Friday morning – 3 am) to capture what was suppose to be a spectacular show in the night sky, the Perseid Meteor Shower.  Maybe I was to late... maybe the South East just didn't produce as nice a show as other places... or maybe it was just the weather conditions. After all... It was sprinkling when I left the house, but mostly cleared by the time I hit Clearwater beach. We did see a few meteors cross the dark sky but none in the direction my camera was pointing. And believe me... it was pointed in several different directions. After a couple hours of laying on the beach in the humid air... we gave up.

On our way back to town I decided I was going to make the best of my early morning and capture a few things that I had been wanting to photograph for some time. We stopped just the other side of the Clearwater Marina where I had always noticed these mesmerizing blue neon lights sweeping across the water when ever I headed to the beach after dark. The photograph above turned out as nicely as I had imagined, so I continued to capture some other shoreline in the same area.

So here's the deal; Never walk away with nothing... always find something in your attempts... and don't worry if you don't capture what you set out to! Shoot for yourself and shoot from the heart!

Until next time...

Love, Laughs, and Photographs,
Wendy
