We head out just before sunrise to look for birds and still water. A pair of loons greet us at the point, follwed by Ospreys with fresh catch in talons at the main channel light bouy.
The still sunrise water reflects off an antique boat out for a morning cruise.
We return to find Susan exercizing with weights on the back dock while chanting softly under her breath. We floated just off shore and enjoyed the serenity too.
The boys go out for an afternoon sail and get all nautical while avoiding shoals, and bouys during our debates of windspped, angle of attack, sail shape, weather helmn, and the proper way to tie a knot. It was a big day on the water, so there was plnty of boat watching as well as we dodged traffic in the main channel.
A 15 second exposure transforms the dancing golden sunset reflections from a set of broken shards to a blurred mist on the water.
With the last vestiges of sun still in the sky, I turn and see this orange reflection on the water by the front dock. Birds are beginning to settle onto barrier island for their nightime roost, and the adults up in the house have all retreated indoors for quiet reading.
