If I had to rank the people in my family who like photography the most it would be me at #1 for sure, I'm down to start a photoshoot pretty much anytime. My mom is second and she's also very photogenic and not afraid to have her photo taken. My brother is third and seems to be indifferent about photos. My dad is certainly last on the list as he doesn't like to have his photo taken much ever at all.

This leads me to rely upon my tripod and my own personal model, aka ME to capture cool photographs. I don't expect everyone to just be down to take pictures nonstop, but, I enjoy it so I do it. Thankfully I have all of the equipment to get it done myself easily.

Our backyard at our vacation house in Seaside Heights, NJ wasn't anything spectacular visually. It was fenced, which worked great for our two Pomeranians. There is an outdoor shower, which I mentioned before that I totally loved. Otherwise, there really isn't a whole lot, but that doesn't mean great photos weren't possible Thankfully the sun was beaming in at a good angle and I had the chance to capture some self-portraits out there.

Later that same evening we discovered a shipping container with a really dope mural painted on both sides of it. It was as beachy as it gets. On one side was a wave crashing with a giant crab. The other was what really caught my attention, another wave but this time with an orca whale and dolphin. Those are two of my favorite animals in the world and they also happen to be how we categorize HP levels here on Hive. I'm blessed to be an orca now, but will never forget my many years spent grinding as a dolphin.

It seems as though I always get lucky enough to take my best photos while on vacation. This was another one of those instances as these are some of my favorite photos of myself I've taken in many months. I hope you enjoyed them at least half as much as I did. Thanks for taking a look and stick around for more posts like this soon.

Love it!

I'm still a Dolphin on HIVE, but if I keep grinding, I'll make it to Orca soon.

Wondering if you see yourself going back to full-time HIVE in the future. What does the price have to be for that to happen?

so sweet art

Very nice and beautiful having both combination of dolphin and orca in the photo.

It was the ideal piece of beach art in my opinion.

Make a lot of sense

Great photography. I also don't like to take photos. Its depends upon different nature of people. Some Peoples like to have pictures and some don't.

I guess you have been in the mood to be taking pictures lately
The pictures look very nice
Love the artworks beside you too
Take care...

Colourful as always !! With dolphin in back,these really good shots. Thanks for sharing.

I'm so glad we discovered this mural, it was hidden on the back side of a shipping container in this random parking lot by the boardwalk.

It's good , finally it has come to notice. We always try to find beauty somewhere else in the distance, but we never know it can be found close to me hidden.It has happend to me a lot of time.😭😭

This is so nice, definitely a great piece of art. 🔥 Same as your shirt bro, You really like art too bro @daltono, If you don't remember me I used to post my artwork on my old account but I decided to make a new one and start over again. hahaha, good to see you again bro. keep on sharing the kinds of stuff that you really love.

Sometimes starting fresh is a good thing.

30 isn’t as bad as they say it is.
I’m living the solo life right now, but I’m happy to be an artistic subject anytime. Let me know if you ever need high resolution photos to work from.

I don't want to ask personal questions but the woman on your post before is your gf right? Sure sure bro I will let you know if I have spare time to do your sketch, This is free so no worries. haha it's like I'm practicing cuz I think I got rusty.

I also like to see street art in whichever city I go to. I would like to watch it drawing one day.

I really like the photo where you're in the middle of the killer whale and the dolphin. However, the rest of the photos are also beautiful. I'm noticing that since I've been using my photos to post on HIVE, I've also improved as a photographer

uh oh.. do i sense another tatoo is on the way now?? :P

Cool painting! Hive was the first thing that came in my mind when I saw the mural because of the HP levels.

Una foto mejor que la otra. Obras de arte!!!. Excelente tomas e iluminacion. Felicitaciones!!! Se disfruta cada imagen!

Wao very great and nice art background. You looks rock.
