I took a long drive in a 4X4 out to Northwest Point. The 3rd largest reef in the world starts here. Literally right from the beach. The beach for 10 miles is littered with all types of coral, sand dollars and plastic North Atlantic refuse.

I did a very different (for me) kind of post processing on these. I had to be careful with the sharpening since the rocks were such that it would appear over sharpened when not.

I walked 4 miles before seeing another human.

I love the clouds in the first shot Jason, and did your lens (and you) get soaked in the second shot by any chance? :lol:

Thankfully no. I've gotten very good with water in my time here!

Fabulous clouds in #1 - the weather hasn't been the best in our area for a while, has it? Looks like you are making the most of it.

My sales are hurting from this weather. It can leave any time now.

I love the clouds in the first one, and the movement of the water rocks in #2. I'm sitting here looking at the shot, waiting to get wet. Great job!

Thanks everyone.It was tough to wait for dry rocks to get wet!

I still haven't found any reference to these islands in a Nat Geo article. It's too bad.

Everytime I look at the first image, my eyes are stuck on those clouds... I can't take my eyes from them. Nice

Photographs are records of life. Pity they don't make music when you put them in a record player. :p
