This is an example of the fine beaches near the hotel at the OBX. The clear line and tones led me to this BW, hope you enjoy it.
Have fun!

Catch the sun
Jockeys Ridge
On my way to the car, back from the big dune, the sun caught my eye reflecting in this light.
Have fun!
Nice Blackpoint
Different Lighthouse, looked for something else than the classic Lnadscape thing, so I went for this graphical Close-Up.
Have fun!
Classic of a Lighthouse
The sky was friendly, and so I did best as I could to capture some of the beauty of this place on the OBX.
Have fun!
Hard working man
In the same little harbour, this friendly fella was nice enough to pose for us for me for a minute - Thank you.
To compensate for the very hard sunlight I took a rapid bracketed series of 7 shots and let Photomatix do its magic.
Converted in LR.
Have fun!
Colors of the US of A
While walking a small harbour, these reflections caught my eye. All I did to the file in LR / PS was to crop a little and turn the image. These abstracts sometimes get me :-)
Have fun!

Rock in Row - Lighthouse morning
This morning I went to the Currituck Lighthouse (in the forest) and gave my best to compose a shot - not too easy with boring clouds at the sky. You can see my pics of the day here at

Arrived
After 25 hours of railing, flying, waiting and driving, I made it in one piece to Kitty Hawk. My first day there was spent driving the entire island (made more than 200 miles trip) and finding some nice spots. More photos from my first day at the OBX can be found on my Flickr stream http://www.flickr.com/photos/geopirat/sets/72157617546735875/
Boarding will start in 5 minutes
I am on my way from Germany to th eOuter Banks / Kitty Hawk in the US of A. Starting by train at 05:51 am, I hope to reach my destination safely in 19 hours. This is the beóarding room in Frankfurt airport Terminal 2.
More pics from this day of travel can be found on my Flickr stream here http://www.flickr.com/photos/geopirat/sets/72157617638826814/
