Last night we invited a couple friends over for BYOBC (bring your own beach chair) and BYOB. Brian has wanted to sit at the beach at night relaxing and chatting for a bit, so we finally decided to do it. Here’s my hand at taking some low light photos. I kicked myself for not bringing my tripod, so these are all hand held with slow shutter speed using any apparatus to steady the camera. The first is the sun setting, looking toward the Marine Corps Base.

This is of some fishermen (and fisherwoman?) setting up lines with the dark outline of one of the Mokes in the background.

Then, I tried to capture stars and palm trees. A tripod would’ve done a world of good, but it’s a start.

The streak to the left is a plane.

The meteor shower is supposed to be strong the next few days and I might try to go out, but we’ll see.
