This is the Time

May 29, 2016 by Greg Molyneux

Wide angle photograph of blue hour on the beaches of Surf City, Long Beach Island.

This is the Time — 14mm | f/8 | ISO 100 | EXP 1/20

Well folks, we made it. Another Memorial Day Weekend is upon us. The unofficial start of summer for we the people of the LBI Region. A time when hopes and dreams reach their zenith. School is ending. Love is fresh and life is in full bloom. Temperatures rise along with the excitement of a summertime full of memories to be made. Personally the stretch of days that run from Memorial Day Weekend up through and including the Fourth of July represents my absolute favorite portion of the Gregorian calendar. Hands down. I cannot—I will not!—be moved from this position. The days are long and the nights are full of wonder. While it may not be my best stretch for photos, it is a lifelong love affair with this time of year that far and away predates my time as Camera Man. It lifts me greatly from my usual anxiety fueled disposition. Let’s make this summer great. Let’s be kind to one another; let’s hit the beach; and let’s get out there and support our local businesses that rely so heavily on a productive summer season. We can do it. We can set the stage for a good time had by all. We can make it happen.

Cheers!
