Now this looks familiar...

I like what you've done here, in terms of the post-processing. Could well have been a Polaroid capture!

I really like this. The lack of contrast gives me a feeling of morning, and the square format really fits with your composition.

Amen to that. We went to Cape Cod, Massachusetts that year. I remember some of it. I know I had a lot of fun. Haven't been back since. Really should someday.

I'm not surprised. One thing I remember was the wide beaches at low tide. Having a house at the Jersey shore pretty much killed any love I had for the beach. Spent a good part of the time working on the house since we rented it out during the summer and we went down there in the off season as well. Ruined any chance at a social life during my high school years.
