So… it's been raining all day. While I'm quite happy with a day to nap, watch TV and read, my child and her cousins were a tad bored. Luckily, there is an indoor pool. But that only goes so far.
I've been trying to blog pictures daily during my vacation and I thought today would be a challenge because it's been nothing but downpour all day long. Since I can't really shoot the kids (lighting is horrible at indoor pools and if I don't have to shoot at one, I will gladly skip it), I thought I'd try to change my perspective and show things from a 20th-floor perspective.
Here's my first try. I thought the parking lot was pretty cool, but I couldn't quite get what I was looking for.
While I got some OK stuff from the parking lot, I thought I'd see what I could get beach-side. Here's a birds-eye view of the boardwalk with a tiny splash of orange.
I think this is my favorite… I love the contrast in this shot – boardwalk against snow-white sand.
Even though it was raining, it didn't keep everyone off the beach. Here a couple of girls walk the wet boardwalk back to the hotel.
I love the contrast of these sand fences.
The boardwalk acts as a funnel of foot prints – in and out.
I like this shot because it shows how immense the ocean is. When you're down at the beach, you only see a bit of the ocean. Up a couple hundred feet, it's all ocean.
We should get some sun tomorrow… See you then.
