Today was a cool day, literally. I love shooting in cooler weather. As a photographer, as a hobby-ist, I prefer shooting on cloudy days. Usually the sun is always too strong and I always get harsh shadows on my subject. Unlike shooting with clouds, they act like a giant umbrella or light modifier. After taking care of a lot of stuff around the house and enjoying my day off, I had to go shooting. I decided to go to Oceanside Pier just to shoot. No self portraits, not for work, just to shoot. I haven't done that in a while, and it felt good. Cruising around the pier with my camera and iPhone on Pandora. I was able to grab some awesome shots, meet some cool photographer, and get collective with my thoughts. I just walked around the pier, carrying my camera just brings a lot of attention, maybe because I'm so Professional. Hahaa. Here were some shots. Thanks for checkin' them out too.

Another HDR, just practicing on that dreamy effect.
Some people love that look, but I had to practice it. |

So many surfers today from young to old. Makes me want
to hit the water. |

The beach was warmer than inland. |

I wanted to stay for sunset, but I got too hungry. Hahaa. |
