I am continuing with my work inspired by Raymond Meeks. This week I was able to go
out to an area where there are many people from all over the country enjoying the beach
and the beauty of the ocean.  I continue to feel inspired by Raymond Meeks.  Every week
since taking on this project I make it a point to go back and look at all of his work and I
discover something new in his photos.  I especially enjoy how he captures the expressions
in his portraits.  It seems everyone that is being photographed is oblivious to the camera.  I
am continuing to work on my portraits by showing the person in thought or doing a daily
task not knowing that they are being photographed.  To me this shows their real personality
and how they are feeling at that moment.  I value photos more when the person being
photographed appears to be sincere with their thought.  I want to take pictures that show
happiness when happy or sadness when sad.  Getting someones real thought is what's important
to me.  My landscapes above I hope appear to be sharp and clear.  I want to capture the beauty
of the world that we sometimes take for granted.
