What is the tangled mess there?

Marconis · 07-18-2007, 12:56 AM

It was tons of fishing line and mesh stuff all tangled together. I hope you're all clicking the pictures to make them bigger cause they look like poo all scrunched together

Great pictures!!

Great pics!!!!
But none of the lighthouse?!?

I haven't been to Montauk in years. I wonder if they still let visitors go inside the lighthouse?

I really like the shot before the tangles fishing line. Few people use B/W and I find it does a great job depicting beach scenes and architecture. Did you shoot in B/W mode or reprocess the image later?

Thanks for the kind comments everyone. When I use digital I edit the photo for black and white, but when I am using my 35mm I use B&W film and develop it myself. Not sure if they still let people in the lighthouse, I didn't have a chance to visit this year.

Well I haven't been on in a few days, so I missed this whole thread (and about 50 others). Great pics! I esp like the color one of the tree trunk/beach/water and the very last one (green green green).

Didn't you say it was your birthday recently? Nice of Montauk to shoot off fireworks in your honor. LOL.

Marconis · 07-19-2007, 04:25 PM

Haha. Those weren't fireworks, they were actually canceled cause of rain

. The white one is a sparkler and the other is our kick *** bon fire that me and my friends made.

Great pics! I just can't believe that you left behind that great looking wood in the second pic. LOL. Did you take the LIRR? I noticed you took pics of the train and the station sign.
