Joy of nature!

by Carolyn Derstine

Gallery: Man & NaturePosted August 1, 2011120 views5 comments
We recently vacationed in Ocean City, NJ with our family and this was our 1-year-old grandson's first time at the beach. As you can tell, he loved it! I couldn't resist sharing this photo that shows his delight in experiencing the ocean and sand for the first time. Since there is no "doting grandparents" gallery, I thought I would post it in "man & nature". :smile:

Panasonic DMC-FZ28. 8mm at F/6.3 for 1/500 sec. ISO 100.

Great expression of unbounded joy. Get that kid a camera and he'll fit right in with the rest of us. :cool:
