October at the beach

We've often traveled to Lewes, DE for fun, food and relaxation. Recently we spent a weekend with family in nearby Rehobeth, DE. I'd never seen the southern portion of Cape Henlopen, which includes marshes and the beautiful Gordons Pond wildlife area. A bicycle ride opened my eyes and I set out with camera the next morning.

But first, I stopped at one of my favorite locations in Lewes, the Lewes and Rehoboth Canal. The combination of water, plant life, and sky in this spot draws me back again and again.

The vegetation at Gordons Pond had some autumn colors. It was a sunny Sunday morning perfect for shooting (though it might have been better earlier...I was at the canal at that point.) We are fortunate to have public areas dedicated to preserving environments like this. Thanks, Delaware.
