A Trip to the Beach

Luckily I was able to escape the snow for a week and my family decided to head down south to a cool oceanside town. And for me, trip to the beach pretty much requires me to bring my camera. Luckily, with my new camera case, I'm able to keep a few of my little plastic ponies inside of it. For this trip, I brought my new Safari, who doesn't have a name as of the moment, (and as I said before, I'll get around to a blog post), and one of my old Stablemate foals. I'm beginning to efficiently manipulate shutter speed and aperture to get the lighting of the pictures that I want. These were taken around sunset.

I will do a post with the model in these first pictures, I forgot I had gotten him
