A Trip to the Coast
Last week, my husband and I went down to Wrightsville Beach for a wedding. Right before we left, I was reading through my grandfather, Richard Harvey Wright Jr.’s archives and found a letter about a trip he and his family took to Wrightsville Beach in 1930. I had to laugh at how particular my grandmother was. Inserted in the correspondence was a map of Wrightsville Beach during the early years.…

Driving along the beach with my little man to see the wild horses that live in Corolla North Carolina 🐎🐎🐎 . . These wild horses descended from the Spanish Mustangs brought to the Outer Banks by early explorers, the Corolla Wild Horses have roamed across the Currituck Outer Banks for approximately 400 years. These horses are such a significant cultural and historic resource to our area that the Spanish Mustang was designated as the official state horse of North Carolina in 2010. . . These wild horses roam freely in Corolla and are most commonly found in the four-wheel-drive areas of the beach. It is illegal to intentionally come within 50 feet of the horses, so that means no petting or feeding, but they can be appreciated from a distance which is what we have done as family today. . . The Outer Banks has also a peaceful playground for the rich and famous since the 1920s. The natural beauty, warm Atlantic ocean breezes, and laid-back vibes are an irresistible antidote to hectic Hollywood life. . . What should you do if you were vacationing in the Outer Banks with us? Just smile with gratitude for the beautiful weather, catch a wave, play in the sun? . . @prilaga #outerbanksnc #northcarolinabeaches #prilaga #wildhorses #northcarolinaoutdoors #corollancbeach #outerbanks #wildhorse #outerbanksvacation #outerbanksmom #wildhorses4x4 #corollanc #northcarolinacoast #4x4offroad (at Corolla Oceanside) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1b30F1nmgm/?igshid=fu7pua8jk169

Where the Crawdads Sing By Delia Owens ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 I started reading Where the Crawdads Sing two years ago and didn't get far enough to feel the hook of it so I returned it to the library. I decided to give it another chance, listening to it primarily on audiobook until about 50% when the book became available through my library. I enjoyed reading it more than listening. I hadn't read the synopsis in a long time nor had I watched the movie trailer so I wasn't positive what I was getting myself into. This type of historical fiction is so interesting to me and while I enjoy reading it, I rarely seem to pick it up. It's up there with The Four Winds by Kristin Hannah for me. I love how we see Kya grow and learn to live on her own after her family abandons her and the town writes her off. She is fortunate enough to have a few people that care about her, including Tate (though in my opinion he royally messed up). I loved learning about the swamps in North Carolina and at one point realized either a lot of research went into this book or Delia Owens has a background in wildlife, biology, and zoology (she does). It was equally fun and educational to read. I was so happy to see a redeemed life for Kya after living in survival mode for many years. Overall, five stars because once I found the hook, I couldn't stop listening/reading. • • • • • #wherethecrawdadssing #lizzierecommends #northcarolinacoast #bookstomovies #bookstragrammer #bookbloggersofinstagram #bookstagramcommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/Cfwiz_5LMvl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We photographed three lighthouses while in the Outer Banks last week, which is always fun. Last Friday, we decided to visit Roanoke Marshes Lighthouse in Manteo. It was a cool morning and the clouds were thick. At first @kristenwilkinsonphotography and I weren't sure we'd get much of anything. The clouds became very dramatic just before sunrise so we at least had that. Then, as the sun started to crest the horizon, there was a break in just the right the spot and it lit all of the clouds above the lighthouse a beautiful warm tone. Kristen and I both scrambled to catch it from a few different angles. This one is one of my favorites so far. I still have a few more to edit I think. I hope you all have a great Sunday to finish off the weekend right! • • • • #roanokemarsheslighthouse #roanokeisland #northcarolina #outerbanks #obx #northcarolinaisgorgeous #northcarolinabound #northcarolinaoutdoors #northcarolinabeaches #northcarolinalife #northcarolinacoast #visitnc #northcarolina_lovers #sonyalpha #thinklee #landscape_lovers #landscape_captures #lighthouse #lighthouse_captures #lighthouses_windmills_gs #lighthouse_world #lighthouse_lovers #lighthouses #lighthouselove #lighthouses_around_the_world #lighthouselovers (at Roanoke Marshes Light) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN0tZZKLbuR/?igshid=1lwlyfpbw3uiw

Part of my love of traveling is the 'firsts' it gives me. The first time seeing that city, the first time eating that famous food, the first time seeing animals native to a region I haven't explored yet. North Carolina gave me another first that I hadn't dreamed of before: my first time seeing a shipwreck. A month before leaving for OBX, @rickberkphoto told me he'd become aware of a recent shipwreck that was going to be near our home base for the week. After some research, we located a rough area and made it a priority to find it. On our first afternoon, we made the hike down the beach and located the shipwreck. Both of us decided that we wanted to come back for a sunrise and two days later, we did. As the light started to come up, I could see the water was washing up into the center of the ship's deck so I picked a spot where it was reflecting the sunrise's glow. The clouds were moving quickly and I was thrilled to see the texture they gave off in a long exposure. After this shot, I moved down the beach and explored some driftwood before making my way into the dune to make the shot I posted last week. • • • • #bodieisland #capehatterasnationalseashore #northcarolina #outerbanks #obx #northcarolinaisgorgeous #northcarolinabound #northcarolinaoutdoors #northcarolinabeaches #northcarolinalife #northcarolinacoast #visitnc #northcarolina_lovers #nikonnofilter #thinklee #obxshipwreck #landscape_lovers #landscape_captures #landscapelovers #landscapehunter #yourshotphotographer #longexpoelite #amazing_longexpo #longexpo_addiction #longexpohunter #raw_beaches (at Outer Banks, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNsZo5KsHYC/?igshid=njmaf7oypajp

One of the top items on my list when I visited the Outer Banks last week was to photograph Cape Hatteras lighthouse. Unfortunately, when @kristenwilkinsonphotography and I arrived at the lighthouse itself, scattered around the base were construction vehicles and a chain link fence to keep people away. I guess they were doing some work on the old beacon. That meant we had to get creative and find angles that obscured the base of the lighthouse. After some exploring, we managed to find this vantage point, a mile or so down the beach from the lighthouse. I used a telephoto lens to bring it in closer, which had the added benefit of compressing perspective and making the dunes, lighthouse, and clouds in the background all seem much closer in relation to each other. I also used a LEE Filters polarizer to minimize the haze in the air. The end result was the type of shot I had visualized anyway, before my visit: the weathered old lighthouse standing tall above the dunes of the Outer Banks. • • • • #capehatteraslighthouse #capehatterasnationalseashore #northcarolina #outerbanks #obx #northcarolinaisgorgeous #northcarolinabound #northcarolinaoutdoors #northcarolinabeaches #northcarolinalife #northcarolinacoast #visitnc #northcarolina_lovers #sonyalpha #thinklee #yourshotphotographer #landscape_lovers #landscape_captures #lighthouse #lighthouse_captures #lighthouses_windmills_gs #lighthouse_world #lighthouse_lovers #lighthouses #lighthouselove #lighthouses_around_the_world #lighthouselovers (at Cape Hatteras Lighthouse) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNur1cBLp4k/?igshid=awymbklckfab
