My View from the Shore

I’m Steve Atkinson and I’m ShoreToBeFun. That’s how I often introduce myself when I attend Networking Events. I’m an Internet Publisher and Photographer, ShoreToBeFun Photography.

I have begun this site for my journaling. Something I should have done long ago. My interests vary. But usually it’s related to Art and Entertainment. That’s part of the reason I began ChesaDel Crier, to share information on the Arts on the Delmarva Peninsula.

What will you find in my journaling. Could be anything. My thoughts, a republished post from a blog I did from 2006-10, 6 Things to Consider, or a Photo Essay.

For 2021 I am doing a couple of daily themes. Marker Monday’s I’ll be posting a photo of a Historical Marker. On Tuesday will be a photo, often one that has been revisited. Wednesday’s Quote is just a inspirational quote. Friday I’ll be posting one of my old 6 things to Consider Post.

Thursday, I am terming Thursday’s Though and may not appear every week, but will be just random thoughts I am having.

Thank You for taking a look. If you like what you see, please share with your friends.

Tuesday’s Photo: Shore Peaceful Moment – Chester River

For this week’s Tuesday’s Photo I have another recent photo. I have had a YouTube Account for many years, but have never used it. Last week I came up with an idea of doing short one minute videos of Peaceful locations on Maryland’s Eastern Shore and the Delmarva Peninsula.

Yesterday I went to Wilmer Park in Chestertown and recorded the first ‘Shore Peaceful Moment’ video. This photo was shot just seconds before I recorded the one minute sight and sounds of the Chester River. The video will be at YouTube.com/ShoreToBeFun on Thursday morning, March 11, 2021 at 7:30am. My plan is to have a new ‘Shore Peaceful Moment’ on YouTube each Thursday morning.

About Tuesday’s Photo:
I decided to do a 52 week photo project for 2021. One that will have me posting on a photo each Tuesday.

10 years ago near the end of 2011 I began seriously taking photographs and have taken many over these years. Some I never really reviewed. Others I decided weren’t the best of the batch. Some I planned to go back and re-edit, but for unknown reason I never did. This year I plan to review photographs and edit them, or sometimes re-editing as I seem fit.

As I look at them, I may decide to go back to the location and make an attempt at creating a better photograph.
