Beach Sunset – Painting or Long Exposure Photo?
It's funny how the results of long exposure photos never get old to me. One evening last week the kids wanted to go to the beach to fly a newly bought kite. Now, that's a disaster story in and of itself. But... you'll be happy to know the kite did indeed make it home...
