This has been one of the slowest paced Road Scholar trips I’ve ever been on. Which is a good thing because it means I have time to go for walks on the beach and post pictures in between lectures and field trips. The weather has improved significantly so I got in a walk this morning before lunch and after our lesson about salmon and albacore tuna. We’re going out for dinner tonight so I wanted to get an image posted before our wine tasting lesson coming up in a half hour. Feathers on the beach are one of my favorite things. I really love what the sweet 50 did with the grains of sand on this shot. In post processing I added clarity, vibrance and a touch of saturation, also a high pass filter to bring out the detail in the feather.
