Tidewater Region Town Houses

My first attempt at a serious panorama of the Milky Way, our home galaxy. Cape Hatteras Lighthouse provides an ideal location since it faces the right direction to compose such a panorama while maintaining the balance in the image.

This shot is composed of 6 vertical shots shot at 30 degrees of rotation and merged in Photoshop. Added to the usual difficulties of shooting and composing a panorama at night, this night was crazy hot with nighttime temperature in the mid 80s, no breeze and humidity so high that the lens had to be wiped after every exposure. On top of it, the mosquitoes had a field day running rings around me and no amount of bug spray helped. But in spite of all that, I managed to walk away with an image and experience that does appeal to me.

Hilton Vacation Club Ocean Beach Club Virginia Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Last week I stayed at the Hilton Ocean Beach Club Hotel. It's not my first time staying at this property and it won't be my last. I chose to come during winter so as not to compete with too many other visitors for relaxation, peace and quiet. I usually come when the weather is warm. I was checked in by Marquita who was a delight from beginning to end with my check-in process. I had an ocean view studio room with a kitchenette in it which made it nice to put simple things together to eat when I didn't want to venture out too far. These rooms have floor to ceiling windows which makes watching the ocean intoxicating. I saw a school of dolphins practically every morning which made my eyes dance. By my second night I was having comfort issues with the bed and rose my concern at the front desk. Aishadia overheard my concern and stepped in to take over from the person I initially began talking with. Aishadia gave me the energy that my personal comfort and satisfaction was her #1 goal....and guess what, she SCORED! I was smoothly and easily moved to another room that was more suited and I was ever so grateful. The day I was checking out my room phone rang. It was Ms. Luvinia. She had called to check and see how my stay had been. STELLAR!, I told her. We talked about the similarity and history of our first names. We're both named after our Great-Grandmother's. How special is that. :-) Thanks to the team for making my stay so easy, comfortable and relaxing."
