I arrived at the marina early and was prepping the boat for a morning trip. I kept looking at the sky, clouds and light. I finally couldn’t take it. I pushed the boat off the dock and set out to capture the changing light and colors. My trip was leaving in 20 minutes. I thought, “I can shoot for 20 minutes”. I took many photos then went back to the dock. The clouds began to change again and the light was even better. I once again pushed the boat off the dock and motored to a spot in the bay to take even more photos. Looking through the lens I alternated my hand from the lens to the throttle.  I took more photos. The light and clouds were amazing this morning. I even managed to make it back to the dock for my trip on time.

    Beautiful photos. Well worth running out there, even if it was only for 20 minutes.
