The Hunley was sunk off of Hatteras.Didn't mean to give the impression it was near NJ.How was visibility in the Mullica? I doubt good.

Bob I think you were just called a flower picking butt pirate??? Don't let it get you down.I used to be a glorified turd burglar driving pump truck for Russel Reid/Mr.John. I once worked on the set to the movie "The Village" With Segourney Weaver in it.I pumped poop for the whole set.Believe...

I have the book "Shipwrecks of the Mid Atalantic" and it shows several wrecks slong the nj coast.I know here in delaware bay we have a place called Money Island west of Fortescue named for pieces of eight that are occasionally found on the beach there.Rumors of a sunken spanish galleon offshore...

I know the sea level was lower then and I have read the water table was higher.Don't know how much water the Queen Anne drew.Perhaps he turned right and went up the Wading?How would you ascertain where the water is fresh enough?Once Spartina disappears?Where Arum appears? H could have even...

To dig up an old thread my grandson is heavy into pirates,his teacher last year heard him talking about Blackbeard and sh informed him there never was such a person as Blackbeard in the meantime she informed him that leprechauns really did bury gold at the end of the rainbow.I'm dead serious.Now...

ever do any ocean diving around here? I know visibility seems to be poor near the beach but I wondered if it cleared up out further? The purtiest water i ever seen was the Persian Gulf right before Sadly Insane let all that oil lose in the Euphrates that washed into the Gulf.We took a marine...

Always liked Thoreau,Emerson went way over my head.Muir was always my favorite.Walden was way too close to the city for me.Muir got out there.Kinda like a Thoreau and Merriwether Lewis combined.

no it will not kill the cedars but all the plants and small critters that lived there are gone for now.The sphagnum is toast for awhile.I have seen cedar swamps like this on the wading down below wading pines.Quite beautiful and different but sterile for awhile.If you dug into the swamp you...

The pole technique didn't work.Pole too shaky and a big hassle getting camera onto pole without hitting settings on the other hand I found the lean technique.I seen it on a pano tutorial a month or so ago and it suddenly clicked.I raised the tripod back up and when the nadir shots came time to...

I was just getting ready to state they were roads after reading an earlier post about them being ditches but I see you just went there Guy.Yes i do remember a pipe sticking out of the ground and an old road gridwork.I thought perhaps an old campground with electric hookups?or perhaps a...

I agree with Guy,that is a bit big for a coyote but definitely a canine track.I have heard people claim they can tell the difference between a coyote track and a dog track by a single track.I cannot but I can tell by the trail.Coyotes have a place to be and a time to be there.They often use sand...

so I take it hampton road is now impassable as a through road?It looks like by your picture

Deep explorer have you ever dove out to menantico wma or any of the blue holes in the cumberland county area?I've never known any to be deeper then 40 ft or so but I could be wrong.Some are exceptionally clear.One night while wandering menantico me and a friend noticed a car parked next to the...

I just found a nice lightweight piece of trim out back about 1.5 by 1 by 7ft long.I can rubberband the camera around it and hold it out while bracing one end on my shoulder and jamming my other elbow into my side to steady it.It;s very lightwweight so I should be able to stop camera bounce this...

Guy The sun popping out on me really washed the tops of the trees out.I'd of set the EV for sunny and set a fast shutter speed if I'd of known that was going to happen before I started.Also I am still having trouble covering every inch of ground.I am having a brainstorm but I don't know if it...

http://photosynth.net/view.aspx?cid=e99e653a-3742-4092-affb-33a16d9ea9fc this is a pine grove in Belleplain. I had intended to shoot in overcast and of course as soon as I started shooting the sun came out of what looked to me very thick clouds and I already had my EV ballance and shutter speed...
