7:00AM. The sun rises over smooth waters on the Chesapeake Bay, a few minutes after sunrise. Red and orange colors proliferate on the horizon, as the sun glows bright yellow in the center of the picture. Clouds reflect orange light. A piece of driftwood is visible in the right foreground.
4:28PM. A series of waves moves closers to shore on the Chesapeake Bay. The wind was driving these waves hard.
4:34PM. A wave crashes ashore behind a piece of driftwood in the foreground while other waves further out from the shore make their way in.
Same day. Same beach
This morning, the water was smooth
Now? Not so much
What a difference half a day makes
