Photos: Newport Bay

Post by mb_rockstar »

so here is my attempt at photography. took over 100 photos, but majority of them didn't turn out as i expected. so, i'm probably going to delete them all. gives me more reason to go out there. it's so beautiful and relaxing.

Here's my first attempt at nature photography with the new camera. It was also quite cloudy that evening and rain was forecasted...

This is one of my all-time favorite pictures. It conveys so many feelings surrounding the older couple. Some good, some bad, depending on how you interpret the photo.
