Drove out to the beach after work on Monday and came home with these. Weather was kick ass, a tad windy but temp was just right. Enjoy.

Beautiful shots Sevan, hard to pick a favorite though, they're all great.

I'd love to but having some health issues now. Thanks for the offer though, it would be great to shoot with you.

Very nice pics... Just planning our vacation to the NC coast and hope I can get a few shots close to that quality.

Canon 500mm f4 L IS with and without the Canon 1.4xTC II. Exif is intact in the image, look at the exif and all your questions will be answered. ;) Also shooting down at eye level will add to the bokeh as well. Low and dirty is how I like to shoot when ever I can. It's a whole nother world when you get down to their level.
