Welcome to 52Photos, a year in images 2011. 52Photos started in January of 2010 as an effort to capture 2010, one week at a time, through the eye of a camera lens. I've enjoyed the process immensely, and have been thankful for all the amazing feedback I've gotten as a response to my images, stories, and thoughts throughout the year. I'll be continuing with the blog through 2011 with a slightly new look, but still providing 52 images and some thoughts to go along with them. Technical to abstract, social commentary and just plain fun, you'll find a mix of topics, variety of images, and hopefully, something you will enjoy following along. I've had a number of people ask "where can I buy a print??". The answer is an easy one... select images are available by clicking here. Of course you can just send me a message too, I'd love to hear from ya!

Inter Coastal

Week 28


Inter Coastal
July 13, 2010

I spent all of last week in North Carolina. I have relatives, very good friends, and for this trip - a wedding to shoot in the Tar-Heel state. I traveled throughout Carolina, from Charlotte to Wilmington to Raleigh and the Outer Banks. It's a beautiful state with a lot to see and do, and I certainly only scratched the surface of things to experience there. For instance, there is a wealth of mountain wilderness, from the Blue Ridge to the Smokies that I didn't even come near this trip. Next time....

I did, however get the chance to spend some time around coastal Carolina. The above image was taken in the inter coastal lands of Wrightsville Beach near Wilmington. As I rode along with my close friend that lives in the area and was showing me around a bit, I noticed the expanse of green grasses, waterways and sandy trails that lined the road we traveled. I knew I'd want to come back and shoot, and so when the opportunity presented itself, I headed over to see if I could capture some of the beauty there. Its hard to do the area justice, but I think I was able to capture some of the lands' essence.
