I took a drive today up to Sleepy Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. The weather was really cold and windy, but it made for some big waves on Lake Michigan. There were also many different species of waterfowl on some of the near by lakes. 
OK so I didn't have much time after work to find a new place to take some photos, and it looked like it was going to be clear for sunset. So I went back down the street to the Ludington Lighthouse. One is before sunset and the other is after.
After dinner, I made it back out to Ludington beach and walked out to the lighthouse, Which was pretty cool to see up close. After that I walked over to the beach to watch the sunset. There were a lot of seagulls and terns flying around, which were a lot of fun to shoot.
Today, I got up to Ludington MI for the start of two weeks of work. After dinner I made a quick trip over to the Lighthouse for a few quick shots. Hopefully tomorrow I can make it over in time to catch the sunset.
Well the weather finally broke for Sunday and it was a beautiful sunrise at the top of Clingmans Dome. After that I could not resist going and looking for some more salamanders, and you can not go around a corner without seeing a waterfall. It was a great trip and I can not wait to go back and spend more time there.
Well the work is done and now it's time to play, and I could not have picked a better place then the Smokies! It was a wet day, but I still had a great time. The rivers are just 
Today after work we had some time so we headed over to the Georgia Aquarium, which is one of the largest aquariums in the world. It was a lot of fun walking through, looking at all the sea life.
