Bonner Bridge is one of North Carolina's most well known man-made structures of it's kind (The Linn Cove Viaduct on the Blue Ridge Parkway is probably the most well known). This location makes for a great getaway at the Outerbanks to spend an entire day (and night). The location is popular for fishing and is ideal for landscape and astro photography. You can have lots of fun on some of the dunes, although getting the sand out afterwards is a big hassle.

This is one of my favorite images from this location. I love the warm light tones and the shadows that create a contrast in the foreground sand. It is created from a single exposure with only minor modifications made to adjust overall contrast and brightness.

If you are interested in wildlife, the Pea Island Wildlife Refuge is nearby and is a very popular location.

Thank you for stopping by.

Baymont by Wyndham Greenville

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel staff were very friendly, everyone was professional. I got a double queen room, the room was quaint, it was clean but there were signs of an insect problem. They did offer a variety of options for the continental breakfast menu and fresh hot coffee. Overall I enjoyed my stay. I would recommend this hotel for the price I can not complain. I will say make sure you check all your luggage before leaving so you don’t take any unwanted guests home with you."
