Welcome

Field Notes recently changed to Life With a Camera. Our interests in both photography and travel expanded over the last few years. As a result, the focus of the blog changed. We are still Master Naturalists, and most of our travel centers on natural places and small towns, so nature will still be a dominate theme.

Thank you for visiting

St. George Island State Park

We visited St. George Island State Park and camped there in our RV for a week mid-November. The mosquitoes at the campsite were outrageous, but I read a review prior to leaving that mentioned the high mosquito activity so we were somewhat prepared.
The angle of the November sun led to some interesting colors and shadows on the incredible sand dunes. The dunes looked surreal in the sun. With the sand so white they appeared to be snow covered hills, until your eyes and mind take in the clumps of bright yellow flowers.
I walked the road nearly every morning at sunrise and every evening at sunset to marvel at the colors and shadows.

 The long shadows from the setting sun
 What appears to be part of a boardwalk jutting out of the sand
Note the golden cast from the morning sun
