Mackworth Island

Went for a walk partway around Mackworth Island today. The sun started going down before I made it too far because I kept stopping to take pictures. Very nice out today!

What I consider more or less "artsy" shots.

I loved the snowy icy formations over here.

Pretty blues

Squiggly lines

I like to call this.. pastry ice.. the texture is really quite layered and interesting. I wouldn't recommend eating it however..I may have stepped on it, oh what fun that is heeheehee.

Rocks and patterns and patterns and rocks.

A pretty tree along the beach, and ..the beach!

I'm almost done I swear.

But first many pictures of shells. I found a "stream" of them, but the sun was going bye bye so I had to try to take some pictures quickly.

And on my drive home I decided to go around the back cove. There was a red light otherwise I wouldn't have attempted taking this one from my car..

Yes it was cold, but who says you can't have fun on the beach in the winter? Actually, I know a lot of people who quite enjoy it in the winter, myself included apparently..ahah.

Fore River Sanctuary

Due to unusual circumstances, I was able to not work today, thus allowing me for some time to take pictures. I went to Fore River Sanctuary, and actually found the path this time.. The lighting was troublesome, so I played around with settings a lot.
