Camp Bryan

We never really realize how connected we are until we experience life without cell phone service and internet. I was fortunate enough this past weekend to travel to the North Carolina coast with some friends and relax. However, I was planning on having internet and cell service. Once we got to Camp Bryan at 1AM Saturday I quickly realized I didn't have service of any kind for miles. At first I was upset and rather annoyed, but I quickly changed my mind and soon enjoyed being without a phone 24/7. As bad as it may be for business I think everyone should turn their phones off sometime and just enjoy life. We get caught up in our electronic life so much we forget about the people we have with us in person.

I wasn't able to shoot as much as I would have liked in between mudding, hunting, and riding. Seeing that I'm not made of money (unfortunately) and I wouldn't be able to replace my camera had it fallen into the lake, or been covered in mud. The risk of damage was simply to great. One of the times we were out late at night, 2AM or so, and we were crossing back over the river to get to our 4 wheelers. (Sounds so redneck doesn't it? Whatever you wanna call it, it was a blast.) My friend Alex went out on a dead tree over the river and the tree collapsed right when he got into the middle. Besides the fact that he was screaming because of the cold water, my mind kept thinking about how it could have been me in the water with a ruined D700. Thankful between all of our stupidity that was the extent of any injuries, really really cold basically freezing water.

I'll be shooting more this week so keep a look out for new

posts and pictures! Thanks as always.

Here's a quick snap off the back porch of the cabin.
