A day out a Driftwood Beach

Welcome back to another post on my blog about my recent trip to Driftwood Beach, Jekyll Island located in Georgia. This has been on my bucket list for photography for many years and now I have done it and I loved everything about the nature of Driftwood Beach.

This is a Driftwood Tree, I photographed during sunrise conditions while i was out doing a sunrise shot at Driftwood Beach at Jekyll Island and the hotel we were staying at was literally 5 minutes from this beach so I plenty of opportunities to take many different types of wildlife including many crabs, tons of shore birds and Bald Eagles which AL D did not get on his previous trips over to Driftwood Beach when he went there.

This is an Adult Bald Eagle which I also photographed at Driftwood Beach. This was the first time I had ever seen an Adult Bald Eagle at beach before . This was my first time that I was able to catch it at Driftwood Beach.

This was a very cool day to see 2 Bald Eagles in one day.


Theres More to come on my post for this Driftwood Beach Post.


This is a Juvenile Bald Eagle which I also photographed at  Driftwood Beach and every time a fishing crow went nearby this bald eagle it would start calling out and its really cool to watch this happening over and over again and I wish I had gotten this a video. 

Maybe next time it will happen and I will be able to video it and put up as video on vimeo.

This Bald Eagle let me get very close and it didnot take off when I was taking the photographs of it. This was very cool moment for me.










Also, During Sunrise I got photos of Dolphins that were jumping at sunrise which had also been a goal of mine to catch that at sunrise and it has been accomplished in 2021 at Driftwood Beach at Jekyll Island.









This was a great beach trip, I had at Driftwood Beach at Jekyll Island and the plan is to return every two years before hurricane season to see what changes, have happened since I photographed at it last.

When this tornado touched down on the ground another tornado started forming in the same storm system that had produced this massive tornado of E-F5 status but this tornado that touched down right after the first was rated as an E-F 0 tornado, that did minor damage compared to the massive one that stayed on the ground for 38 miles.   Wh...

Just a little snow

Hey hey it Al back with a snow pictures from earlier today which I used My iPhone XR for these photographs of the snow , since I did not use my camera for these shots. We were supposed to get 1-3 inches of snow accumulation in this area but we only ended up with a dusting of snow.  Some schools in the area of central North Carolina either did remote learning, delayed openings or closed for the day which one school system , did which was Chapel Hill Carrboro City schools. Even though, this was the only snow storm that Some snow stuck to the ground some did not stick to the ground due to the rain before that. In this shot, I did with the snow I used the snow as foreground element and used the remaining of the background to be blurred out to make an interesting photograph that came out really cool for this shot. I hope we might get another snow storm in February this year that might produce more snow and I can take even more pictures of it if is possible to happen this year in North C...
