Gulf Shores State Park Pier in a Storm
Last week, a storm swept through the Gulf Shores area, bringing rain and fog, ideal for low contrast photography. The Gulf State Park Pier was closed for repairs from Hurricane Sally, expected to reopen in summer 2024. Despite the weather, the area remains a beautiful, accessible beach destination.

Last of Summer a Beach in Gulf Shores
Busyness has many enemies, but to me, one of the greatest causalities of busyness is the loss of creativity. When life turns into a checklist of task items the thing that loses out, at least in my life, is always the creativity of reading, writing, photography, poetry, contemplation, prayer, games, music, and so on. Many…

Weekly Photo Challenge Merge
It didn’t take me as long to come up with an image for “merge” this week as a part of the WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge (Merge), but it also looks like one of the more popular posts from the traffic as well. A sunrise might be a little more cliché than my previous posts, but…

God, Wind, Surfers, and Some Photography
There is nothing quite like the power of God as seen through an incoming storm on the ocean. This week we planned on spending a few days in-between our two fall semesters down at the gulf, and of course there was a strong remnant of a hurricane from the Pacific on its way over right…

Photos From Gulf Shores State Park Beaches
I finally got around to editing some of the photos from our camping trip last weekend. We stayed at Gulf State Park in Gulf Shores Alabama, just down the road from where we use to live in Orange Beach at Bearpoint Marina. This state park is one of the larger ones, but a little less…

Perdido Key National Seashore Photos :: Friday Feet
Today was our first and last full day on the gulf coast. For January, the weather was beautiful but very very windy. We went to one of our most favorite places in the Perdido Key area, the Gulf Islands National Seashore. We never really stay for more than a day or two down here but…

Gulf Shores Bike Trail to Beautiful Sunset Beach
I would like to say that every day is filled with a bike ride and a walk on the beach, but at least, today, it was. We use to spend quite a bit of time in Orange Beach, Gulf Shores, and Perdido Key, but haven’t made it down here in the last 6 months. This…

Leave the Boat in Orange Beach to Sit in Traffic on I-65
Well, we had to leave the boat and come back home. It was such a great weekend we didn’t want to leave but all good thing must come to an end I guess. It was nice to get back to the house though and take a nice shower and enjoy the rest of the afternoon.…

Dolphins Came to Visit Us and Mate in the Marina
The first time we saw dolphins from right here in our slip Deborah and I were very excited. Now, they seem to be here every time we come, but not like they were today. Today, a pair came into the marina (which is a dead end), went all the way to the end, came back…
