A storm rolls in over the pier, while the sun shines through the clouds. Seeing how small the pier looks from this distance reminds me of how large and unpredictable the ocean can be at times.

This morning I had a chance to stop and watch the sun rise over the Cape Fear River. It was still twilight when I made this photograph. I was enjoying the calm and stillness of the small vacant beach, and the gentle but rhythmic sound of the water made the moment that much relaxing. Although I was not able to get a photo of them, shortly after I made this photo there were at least two dolphins swimming just off shore.

Here is a farmhouse I saw on the way home from Imaging USA.  I like the look of the silos on the sides of the house.  I’m not sure what they grow, but I hope to be able to figure it out during the summer.

This is just one of the many homeless people in the Atlanta area. The temperature was around freezing this morning as this person was trying to stay warm enough to sleep.
