Irene where ya gonna be

Irene has some things in her favor of becoming a cat. 3 storm.  First off there's a lot of very warm water to help strengthen and a wobbly bermuda high as well as some upper levels that are kind of creating a alley way with the northern coastline of South carolina at the center.  Please remember that storms like this have a lot of run-up water before an actual storm surge.  Ok, now for surf..... well...maybe Friday but don't expect anything come Saturday unless you wanna get tossed around in 20foot victory at sea conditions.  Winds are increasing from Thursday on through Sunday and will probably top out at a nasty 100 mph or higher.  Don't be stupid!  http://www.hurricanetrack.com/

daytrip to Charleston

This should say something about my little trip to Charleston Saturday......enjoy

small wave heavy wind

We have had a little wave here the last two days and today seemed like a good time to test out a 2X teleconverter with the sigma 18-200mm.  I sat a little further back up on the dunes and seemed to get used to it as the boys were catching punchy little waves.

sunrise at the dunes

I'm out and about today with k-7 just popping shots from MB southward.....don't know how far south I'm headed.....maybe Chas., just don't know

Wooden Boat Show #2

Ok, so I actually got around to processing the pics.  I had accidently hit my raw button on the camera and all pics were in raw format which takes a little time to process( the files are huge).  It's late and I'm going to have me some chilli at the Surfriders chillympics tommorrow, so night to you all! enjoy.....Wooden Boat Show slideshow

Wooden Boat Show, Georgetown, SC

So I slept in on Saturday am and then cooked it down to G-Town for the wooden boat show.  Such a great event showcasing some amazing artists and craftsmen.  Plus the stories were great from these guys.  I only got to spend a little time down there but it will be on my calendar for next year!!!  I should maybe set my alarm a little earlier though!!  enjoy........I'll put a link to a slide show of all 200 shots later tonight, gotta go make the donuts!!!
