Thematic Photographic 88: "What I Did On My Vacation" v.5.0 - Because I Never Get Tired Of It
"Who could get tired of this? Really."
North Topsail Beach, NC - July, 2009 (Click to embiggen)
Once you've been out long enough for the temperature and humidty to stabilize so you're not wiping fog off your lens constantly, Topsail Island at sunrise is a bounty of photographic subjects. Subjects that really require no words.

Thematic Photographic 82: "2009 - The Year that Was" v.4.0 - Topsail Island, Part 1
A midsummer weekend's dream. That's all I can call it. As strange as it seems, I don't think I'd ever visited Topsail Island until this past July. It's situated almost exactly halfway between the two beach regions I usually go to, and I've hit above and below it countless times, but never split the difference. But someone planted the seed and I decided this was the place to go for a change of scene this summer. And 900 photos later was I ever glad I did. And this? Is why that trip to Topsail gets a post all to itself. One shot from each day of the trip. And I'm gonna shut up now because these images need no narration.

Thematic Photographic 81: "Feet" v.3.0 - Concrete Shoes
"Foot of the bridge at NTB"
North Topsail Beach, NC - July 2009 (Click to embiggen)
Who says feet have to be animate? These are the feet of bridge pilings, plus the span and height of the bridge itself are measured in feet, as is the depth of the water. There's feet all over the place here.

Thematic Photographic 79: "Elsewhere" v.1.0 - Where Else?
"It Had To Be Topsail"
North Topsail Beach, NC - July 2009 (Click to embiggen)
When it comes to "someplace else", the first place my mind runs is to the coast. Doesn't matter what time of year, and I don't need a reason. In fact, I'll be spending New Year's Eve not far from where I took this shot last summer. I wonder what they drop at midnight in North Topsail?

Thematic Photographic 76: "Orange" v.2.0 - Your Mileage May Vary
I may get an argument here about whether or not this light is "orange" or "golden". This is where being a guy comes in handy though because even though I scored off the chart on the color discrimination test, because I'm a guy I'm not expected to understand the subtle variations between orange and sienna and tangerine (and it's probably true that I couldn't call them by their given names). Which in this case works out well for me because I can respond to any suggestion that this is not, in fact, orange with the Bill Engvall standard, "Sorry... I'm just a guy".
