Amami Superman Photography

Yesterday it was pretty hot so we decided to go to the beach after Jade got home from school. I'm not sure what the temperature was yesterday but it was about the same as today. Today is about 90℉ with around 80% humidity. I can't wait until mid August!

We recently enrolled Jade in a swimming school. She goes every Saturday in the afternoon. Her class starts at 4:00pm and my English classes end at 4:00pm so by the time I actually get out to see her, she's just finishing up and I don't get the chance to take any photos, unless I go into the women's shower room which wouldn't go over too well...











I was trying to take some close up shots with a thin depth of field of something else when I took these shots and I had the camera set on aperture priority with aperture wide open. I'll post the photos I was actually trying to take when I took these in another post.





While visiting my wife before we were married, we were at the beach and I came across a heart shaped piece of coral and gave it to her. Ever since then she collects heart shaped coral.



Missy likes to get wet and then goes crazy trying to dry herself off. We tried to clean her off as best as we could before we left but she still had sand in her eyes, nose and everywhere else.









I was having a difficult time with my 18-55mm lens today. I was getting some weird lens flare that I never had before. I cleaned the lens but it didn't go away. I've taken plenty of sunset photos before but today was the first time I've had it happen. Here is a photo with the lens flare in the right portion of it. Here is one more with the flare in the upper half. I don't know, maybe I just never noticed it before in my other photos...
