What if they gave a photo meet-up and nobody came? I knew that cancellation was a possibility, but the clouds didn’t obscure the blue sky enough for me to worry about it as I left the house with 2 hours to spare. As I stood at the ferry landing looking for other people weighted down with photo equipment I checked my email and found the notification that it was cancelled. For a brief moment I considered heading home, but then I kicked myself in the butt and told myself to get on the ferry. Not only that, but I decided to ride the sunset cruise rather than stand on the beach by myself, and that was a good choice. I made two new friends, Rhonda and Art, and we had fun taking photos and pointing out photo ops to each other. I showed Art how to set the focus and exposure in his iPhone, and he showed me some editing tricks that I hadn’t discovered. We toasted the sunset with champaign, compliments of the cruise! Rhonda said it tasted like ginger ale, which it did, and later I discovered that my horizon line was off in most of my photos, but I can’t blame the alcohol for that. I’ll blame the boat, rocking on the water. It was a lovely evening…
Looks like it was a pretty evening and the photos are great.

Thanks Ellen. I can’t believe how easy it was to take the ferry. This old dog learned a new trick!

Beautiful photographs! I love photos taken during sunset when the sky becomes alive with vivid colors. And this part made me smile -> “I’ll blame the boat ..” 🙂 Following your blog.

Thank you, yes, sunsets are great, sunrises also. It’s always nice to have a scapegoat. Anything but operator error!
