Sandy Point State Park

Shannon and I had a late afternoon paddle at Sandy Point State Park on Sunday. We had originally planned to start loading the boats around 11:00, but she got in late Saturday night from a photography assignment and I didn't sleep well, so when she called around 10:00 I was more than happy to start later. We didn't get to Sandy Point until around 3:00, which was fine. We still managed to get in around 4 hours on the water. Not a hard paddle, but it was a nice workout.

We visited two lighthouses and kayaked under the Chesapeake Bay Bridge ... taking lots of pictures. Like usual I started out taking the pictures but since Shannon is a real photographer she couldn't resist telling me how to set the scene. Then she wanted the camera to take pictures of me. But everything had to be just right. We had to paddle around to get the best view of the bridge and to get the sun in the right position for optimum lighting. I rarely go to this much effort when I'm taking pictures. I just take enough that hopefully some will turn out.

At one point she accidentally hit the macro function on the camera. Some really good shots of me got all blurry until we figured out how to reset the camera.
