Have been busy getting ready this past week for the hurricane.  I did take the time to go to the beach yesterday to try to get a few shots.  The surf was rough as you might would expect.  Amazingly there were not many people on the road or at the beach.  There was a father with two children wading out in the ocean there.  This wouldn’t be something I would allow my child to do for sure, because that ocean is dangerous, even in shallow water.

The ocean maybe a beautiful place, but it is also a very dangerous one.

One of my favorite places to photograph, Summer Haven has already been hit hard before the actual storm has arrived.  The man-made ocean barrier between the ocean and the community has already been breached.  The area was just reinforced after Hurricane Matthew.  I hope the area survives this terrible storm.
