Clouds Over Dunes – Cape May

Clouds Over Dunes
Cape May
September 2009

Still my favorite landscape of one of my favorite escapes. I’ve been trying to recreate this shot with a newer camera for about 10 years without much success so far. The fencing and dunes have drifted dramatically since the creation of this image in 2009.

Lisa and I are looking forward to our annual retreat to Cape May in October.

In this drone video we can retrace the route of the former Boonton Branch of the Morris County Traction Co’s trolley as it crossed Great Bay. Great Bay is now part of the private Lake Arrowhead Community in Denville and lies west of Mountain Lakes.
