Piece description from the artist
The full moon of May called the Flower full Moon as it rises over the gulf. Off to the side just above the horizon are a couple of shrimp boats either dragging for shrimp or on anchor. It was necessary to move along the shore in order to create this capture since the boats were some distance away from where the moon had risen. Hurrying to get the capture before the moon rose too high was the challenge.
Charles “Dennis” McKelroy’s interest in photography started soon after graduation from High School. Dennis has taken several courses in photography to advance his knowledge in the art; first with film, and recently with digital.
His interest has mostly been nature, wildlife, scenic, and still life. He has traveled extensively around Texas as well as other parts of the United States, Mexico, and other countries. Having been raised in southeast Texas along the Gulf coast many of his images have been captured locally. West Texas also holds a special interest to him. The Texas hill country, desert and areas around the Big Bend, Alpine, and the Davis Mountains high plains are subjects you'll find among his collections. Dennis looks for original subjects that have not been previously captured; going to out of the way places in search of the everyday scenes that are usually overlooked.
Dennis’ equipment is mostly Canon professional camera bodies and lenses. All of his photos are of original subjects edited to as near as possible as what Dennis saw at the time of capture.
Thank you for your interest. I’m honored you took the time to look through the collections and hope that you will find an image to fulfill your need.
