Water is for slowing sailing across, obviously. :-) Well, it turns out they were all going somewhere. We found this nest of the nasty little vipers* on the long sand spit at the entrance to Waquoit Bay on Cape Cod a few weeks ago when we sailed in for a brief look around a few weeks ago. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/rtaylor/PICKS/2009_boating_pad/300_5389.jpg.html or http://tinyurl.com/q6e94s The shore was crowded with sunbathers, picnickers, and folks just sitting around chatting. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/rtaylor/PICKS/2009_boating_pad/300_5376.jpg.html or http://tinyurl.com/qb2f8p http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/rtaylor/PICKS/2009_boating_pad/300_5380.jpg.html or http://tinyurl.com/r89wnk This was a really gray day; the day before hurricane Bill blew by the Cape. I've brought the contrast up considerably, but none of them have the snap I really like to see in Summer photos. D300, etc. C&C always welcome.
