Just across the Boardwalk from one another in Atlantic City are the sleek and elegant Rebel Hotel and Casino and the Atlantic City Historical Museum. The Rebel is 47 stories of glass and modern architecture with what looks like a giant golf ball on the roof. The Historical Museum, located on Garden Pier, is very quaint, and has a terracotta tile roof. They couldn’t be more different! I loved looking for ways to photograph the contrast.

Massachusetts Avenue & The Boardwalk. What fond memories! That was the address of Beach Front Gardens, the motel where my family stayed during summer vacations at the shore. Long gone, that location is now the home of the recently closed Revel Hotel and Casino. What a grand structure! It has 1,399 ocean view rooms and is 47 stories tall. The architecture is a delight to photograph. I could have stayed there all day finding new angles and patterns, however, the sea was calling to me…………

Just when you think that summer is coming to an end, a bright pink flower appears in the garden for the first bloom of the season! I don’t know the name of these, but they look like miniature lilies and bloom in mid-August. They are definitely worth waiting all season to see. This is a very abstract version photographed with the Lensbaby 3G.

I love it when the car show comes to town and I have a chance to do some graphic photography. The lines, the colors, and in this case, the nearby buildings reflected across the back of the car!

I love this perennial grass that I planted in my garden last month. It has beautiful purple and white feathery plumes. I photographed it this evening with the Lensbaby 3G and a soft focus filter. LOVE this effect and the rainbow of color as a result of some day lilies in the background.
