This is Captree State Park in Long Island New York. I’ve come here several times over the years to go fishing and crabbing. Loaded with work, It’s been 2 weeks since I’ve had the opportunity to add to this personal project and I was itching to go out and shoot again. So I set out for this location, 20 minutes from home. The cloud formations were spectacular and I could envision an epic sunset shot. I had planned to arrive a few hours early, set up my composition and wait. However, as soon as I arrived, I was shocked at the amount of mosquitoes swarming around. It was biblical! I had no more than 5 minutes to get this image and I just had to leave. I originally did not want to post this image as I knew it was not my best work. It was not the shot I wanted to get. But then I remembered, I also shoot and post to remind me of what was going on in the moment. So here it is.
This is a view of Fire Island Lighthouse from the beaches of Captree State Park.
