$10.99

Yes, so I did in fact ignore all the interesting people and beautiful kilts and stuff at the Highland Games and take a photo of price tags. But I was only gone for 1/50th of a second and then came right back.

just…stop

Just stop. Ok? I don’t think I need to say anything else.

The sunset started in spectacular and over the course of a half-hour or so, just kept getting better and better.

After a while, I took a break from making regular sunset photos, and decided to do some with intentional camera movement. It’s kind of a cliche, a little redundant, perhaps derivative, but still I liked swirling the oranges and yellow together.

it could have been magic

I mean, it did feel somewhat like magic, with the purple door and orange trim, the low light, the bounced light, the salt air.

And anyway, who am I to argue with Chaddy’s Emporium and their signage? Surely they wouldn’t say it if it weren’t a fact.

I believe that seeing things in the off-season (like this beach and amusement park) is somehow related to my affection for looking around the back of buildings.

And I know without a doubt that I much prefer quieter, duller amusement parks to their mid-summer counterparts.
