A Day at the Beach

The heat of the semester often leaves scant time for my own artistic pursuits. However, this holiday weekend opened up a free day for me. I started off at The Coastal Center at Milford Point, a Connecticut Audubon Society bird sanctuary, and finished a few miles down the road at Silver Sands State Park. My students and the content I teach were with me, inspiring and pushing my explorations. Aside from the horseshoe crab shot, the other images were digital in-camera multiple exposures, as I overlaid 2, 4, 6, 8 or 9 exposures into a single file.
