Coastal Adventures

Hanging On – Hamlin Sound, Mount Pleasant, SC

I’ve wandered out into the marsh several times to catch a sunrise over the grasses and waterways many times.  Quite often it’s an adventure.  I’m not entirely sure why.  You would think after a while it would become second nature and routine.  Everytime I go I have little episodes where something happens.  On this […]

Bulls Island Expedition

On days like this when the rest of the world is bracing for the onslaught of winter weather, I relish the warmth of the coast and the remote islands around the low country. This island, Bulls Island is 5,000 acres of dense maritime forest, miles of hiking trails and fresh water ponds teeming with […]

This Way to A Mental Reset

I captured this a few days ago as I ventured out onto the beach in search of solitude. There is nothing finer than a stroll on the beach to let the mind relax. There is something about the beach that allows you to let go of everything else and clear the mind.  It is […]

The Lone Survivor – Folly Beach, SC

At the far end of Folly Beach, far from the crowds, hotels and restaurants, this lone survivor stands resolute against the tidal onslaught.  How long it will stand is anyone’s guess.  I have visited on several occasions and cherished each moment.  After my visit I say goodbye, believing that very well could be the last time […]

Searching – A sescape from Newport Rhode Island

“I’ve spent half my life searching for the truth.  The left half of my life” – Jarod Kintz

I’ve always been enamored with long exposure seascapes.  The juxtaposition of solid immovable rock in high clarity and soft dreamy flowing water is amazing.  Add an interesting sky and it really can all come together perfectly.  I […]

Happy New Year!

So I’m a little late wishing you all a Happy New Year. Sorry about that, I’ve been out of commission with the flu since Christmas. In fact my whole family has had it and it’s been awful.  We are all on the mend now, but it’s seriously taken its toll.  We had hoped for […]

Washed Away – Bulls Island

A few weeks ago I found myself riding in the back of a government owned pickup truck leading a group on a sledge, safari style through the maritime jungles of Bulls Island. We were hunting dark skies and had arrived early to see the wildlife and capture sunset in the boneyard. The amount of […]

Capers Island Kayak Camping Trip

This past weekend a bunch of friends headed out to Capers Island to scout the island and capture the beauty of the boneyard, dunes, beach and geminid shower.  We decided to kayak out to  the island, but we had too much gear so we got our friends at Coastal Expeditions to drop it on the […]

“Behind the Falls” – Schoolhouse Falls, Panthertown Valley

Here is one where I got a little wet after an exhilarating hike exploring this area.  That seems to be a general theme.  Water and me.  🙂

This was from my first visit to Panthertown Valley and I’ve been back about 5 times since. It’s a fantastic hiking area and right here is a wonderful little campsite […]
