I just returned home from a week in Long Island NY. I was visiting Art Morris, the two of us went to Nickerson Beach to photograph a couple of mornings until hurricane Irene sent me packing.

I had to remove a pole from the image.

I used the new Topaz B&W Effects plug-in to create this look.

Another great post Denise. I love the second image. The reflection is amazing.
Thanks Edith, I appreciate it!
Nice work Denise!
Thanks Scott. Hey my ESP workshop got rescheduled!
I love them all, but really love the creative versions the best, #3 and #5. Well done, very subtle, yet very effective. Great work.
Cynthia, thank you. I appreciate the support!
Denise, love ‘em all. Espescially #2 with the splash behind the skimmer. Take care during the hurricane. Hope you are not affected by it too much.
Andrew, thanks. I like that one too. I have survived the storm and so did my house-woohooo!
Very cool images, Denise. My favorite is the last one. Thanks for introducing me to Jamaica Bay and Nickerson Beach a couple of weeks ago. Your workshop was a lot of fun and having Artie Morris join us was a bonus!
Dave, Thank you for the feedback and it was great seeing you again. I think your images from the trip are terrific. I really enjoyed your use of filters and of course your classic Jamaica Bay image is fantastic! Hope to see you in Bosque again this year!
A nice set of images, Denise, with 2, 3 & 4 my favorites. I hope you’re riding out Irene without problems..stay safe!
John, Thanks so much for the kind words. I am safe and I am happy to report that my family, friends and house are all ok. I did have 4 trees down from the storm with one of them crushing my friend’s truck in my driveway but other than that all is good
You worked very hard that morning with good results. I like the three images with effects best of all, esp. the last one (that I had not seen before).
Thanks Artie, I appreciate the kind comments.
The first and last image are fantastic.
Thank you so much!
