Monterey Bay

A few more photos from last summers vacation. The first are of the bay, remember it was foggy most of the time and I just started using my camera!(disclaimer)

This is from the aquarium Popup Linkjelly .
This Popup Linksea  Popup Linkotter  put on a show for us after dinner one night at Fisherman's Wharf Popup Linkeating . The water was really dark since it was getting late and of course foggy, so I tried to lighten it in Popup Linkphotoshop . I don't really like how it came out.
This Popup Linkheron  stopped by for the show.

And a totally unrelated picture, Oakley thinking he's at the spa for a  Popup Linkmud mask!

Have a good night!

    The Bay pics are beautiful. But I have to say my favorite shot of all is "mud mask" how cute. The otter shot is much nicer lighter.

    Nice work in post processing on the otter. Shooting digital is much like shooting slide film in that it's better to slightly underexpose rather than silghtly overexpose like you would shooting negatives. Great job!

    Birdie and Wildman - Congrats... I am new here but just assumed you both were already dating. Now I know for sure:) The mud mask cracks me up! Looks like a great trip. Gee, do you think they could fit more boats in that area? That is one packed parking lot!

    very nice shots--the photoshopped pic looks just fine to me--like the water ripples around the critter.

    One of my most favorite spots. I will be there again in May. You have a great eye. Love the boat shots, and the otter photos.

    After dinner stroll is just awesome & mud mask, adorable, but they are all great!

    After dinner stroll, mud mask, the otters, and the heron are my faves. Don't think I've seen a heron that wasn't standing in water or flying. You don't need a disclaimer, Birdie, Your photos are always great... now your choice of dates is another matter!

    Great shot of the marina, talking about traffic jam. Seeing all the boat makes me anxious to get back to the lake. The mud mask was way too cute.
