Hi Gary,
Here is Grand Haven on Mother's Day. Man was it brutal out there! I ended up hand-holding this shot with Velvia (40) at 1/125 second on automatic. Don't remember what F-stop. I was getting blown around so hard that I didn't dare shoot below that for fear of blurring the shot. I think it took me three days to blow all the sand out of my camera.
I bumped up the contrast a bit to help with the color.
I think only lighthouse fanatics like us brave conditions like it was out there that day. :p
