Old Mill Beach
Westport, Connecticut
Back in March I flew home to surprise my mom for her "30th Birthday" (at least that's what we're calling it). My brothers flew in and a couple of her best friends also made the treck over. She was completely surprised and we had a wonderful weekend! The weather also turned out to be absolutely perfect and I spent one night eating fried chicken on a picnic blanket at the beach while we "watched" the sunset "together". I say "watched" and "together" in quotes because it was more like my mom sitting on the picnic blanket while I ran around with my camera trying to snap photos, and occasionally coming back for a couple minutes while my Lee Big Stopper exposed a 5 minuet shot.
Earlier in the day it had been pretty cloudy at the beach and I ran home and grabbed my camera and dashed back to the beach. I threw on the Lee Big Stopper to see if I could capture some cloud movement. This is a long exposure at Old Mill Beach, Westport, CT; LE to make the water glassy and make some nice pastel motions in the sky.
