Bethany Beach in December

Happy new year guys! I hope you all have an awesome new year and resolved to keep snapping some pics this year! :) 

Well, at the beach again! But not so far south this time. We landed in Bethany Beach, Delaware, about a three hours drive. Our family along with about seven other families stayed in a huge beach house for three days. The weather wasn't terrible, nor was it too warm. All the same, we had an awesome time!

This was actually the front door of the house. I took this picture from outside, so you are seeing the window and the curtain. Then you can see the trees behind me from the reflection on on the window. It's pretty cool because if you are looking at the top left of the picture, you tend to focus on the reflection, but if you are looking at the bottom right, you see the curtain. You can call it a two-layered picture. 

This is a picture that my awesome friend took, and I cropped it out alot at the top (people were walking by). I wanted this picture in here because it shows great field of depth. Blurry in the back and very detailed and clear in the front. 

Here we have the boardwalk type thing leading to the beach. When we went to the beach that day, the sky was just beautiful. We took some portrait pictures and the background just looked fake becuase it was too good. The sky had this canvas going from the richest blue down to a yellow-orange. The ocean too was really rich and extremely calm. You can see a little color starting to form here, but I took this picture before the sky was painted. If you look at the top of the picture, the moon made it in!

Here we have some beach houses and just sand. I wanted to point out the depth of field once again. The sand right in front of me is in a lot of detail. It gets blurrier the farther you go, but the houses are in focus. If you observed the sand, you can tell that it rained the day before because the sand is in some crazy texture. 

This was also at the beach the same day. There was this ridge of sand a little farther away from the waves. Erosion in action. In general, this is a pretty cool picture because it's got some neat edits. 

That was the first time we went to the beach that trip, which was on the 31st. I know, the last day of the year was well spent. I went to the beach two more times, so I've got more pictures coming up. I have to say, it was cold the first time we went. Absolutely super cold and windy. All of us stayed up to the point where we couldn't take another picture because our hands were just too cold. Literally. We ended up wearing layers and gloves and hats and scarves and... boots on the sand  :)
