Description
So happy to announce that "Beach Buddies" won third place in the 9/12/2022 Fine Art America contest "Beaches Of North Carolina" held by the Sold On FAA group. Many thanks to contest administrator, Karen Wiles, and everyone who voted for my image. Congratulations to the other winners!
My little family and I used to visit the beautiful Outer Banks of North Carolina every summer. Not only did we have a deep love of the expansive vistas of sand and ocean, but the amazing wildlife always captivated our imaginations. From sand crabs to sand pipers to seagulls, everything delights. The amazing storms that come up are frightening and awe-inspiring, but always exhilarating to the inlander's eyes.
One of my favorite experiences at the Outer Banks was always an encounter with the amazing wild Spanish mustangs. To watch them folic in the waves and along the sandy shore was an incredible treat.
The visit from which this particular image was based took place in July of 2003 ... a long time ago now. We found this small herd of wild horses north of Corolla, in what I believe was known as Corova ... at that time a nearly uninhabited area. A no-4-wheel drive, no-access kind of place. I'm sure it's changed by now. But back then, you never quite knew what you'd find when you ventured past the warning signs!!
