This picture was taken on an unusually warm May day. As you know, May can be a fickle month in New Jersey, where one day it is warm and next it is very chilly. On this day, it was close to 90, which was very unusual. But I took advantage of it by capturing many beach and boardwalk images. This picture shows the coaster and wooden pier alongside a lone man with a knapsack walking the beach. In my mind, he seemed homeless, as if his knapsack held his possessions and clothes. I have no idea what was in his mind, but the scene left me with a lonely feeling.
St. Simon’s Island
I went on a trip to St. Simon’s Island and stayed at a friend’s condo. Each morning I was me with the glorious sunrise right off the balcony. In the evening, the spectacular sunset was amazing. We collected shells on the beach every day. All and all it was a beautiful and restful time.
