I decided to head out to Ft Pickens which is located at the West end of the beach.
While driving near Ft Pickens I noticed a number of cars parked near the pass.
So I parked and headed over to the Pickens Point with camera in hand.
I caught a number of surfers riding the waves.
Waves where between 5 to 6 feet.
Below are a couple of the shots from today.

Well it has been four days now since TS Lee has been in this area and it is still making itself known. Waves here at or near 15ft this morning. Winds where around 40+. No surfers where out today.
Check out the You Tube Video of TS Lee hammering Pensacola Beach from Friday Sept 2nd to Monday September 5th. I shot this video using the Canon 7D with a Canon 70-200 2.8L Lens. I am known as a still photographer so this was a whole new experience for me shooting video.

Topical Storm Lee is still hanging around the area. Waves are still up near the Pensacola Fishing Pier. Even though there where a number of surfers out today, suffering was not good since the wave where more of a huge chop. Hopefully by in the morning the wave will become better formed for suffering. Below are a few images from this morning.
After doing some shots near the pier, I headed over to Ft Pickens. However I found the road to be closed. According to the park ranger the road was covered with sand and parts may be washed out. That was yet to be determined.
So I then decided to head over to Navarre Beach to see what has happened to that beach during this topical storm. The beach was already in bad shape. With this storm there is not much left of the beach. Look at the left guard stand as it is now nearly in gulf. It is also leaning.

Today Tropical Storm Lee (west of here) was bringing 7 to 8 foot waves. There where surfers out today, however even though the surf was up it was a hard time for the surfer to get a good continuous wave. Hopefully tomorrow will bring better wave conditions for the surfers. Of course I plan to be back out in the morning.

As Tropical Storm Lee develops just west of here, the wave action on Pensacola Beach has picked up. This of course brings out the surfers. This morning I was out photographing some of them just west of the fishing pier. Wave where increasing as the morning moved on. By Saturday I expect to see even a increase in the wave action. Of course I plan to be out in the morning looking to catch a few more shots. Below are just a few taken this morning.

The magazine is called Light It and the first issue is free. This is an Apple App for the iPad and information maybe found here. I downloaded this first copy and I must say it is packed full of good information on how to light it.
