Photography Now & Then #104
Part of my intentions for this series is to make taking photos normal for me by taking at least one photo a day using any camera, which will usually be either my iPhone 6s or Pentax K-3 II. The associated blog post will be dated for the date of the “now” photo, even if it means backdating publication. The primary focus is a picture-a-day, with a corresponding post for that date.
I almost missed a day, though. By chance, though, I had snapped this photo when we went to town for groceries, etc.:

Seven years ago, on the 4th of July holiday weekend, we took a short duration trip down to the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, with most of our time spent in Mississippi, though we did get to a part of Alabama and even a little bit of Florida.
Fort Gaines (Wikipedia) is an historic fort on Dauphin Island, Alabama. It was named for Edmund Pendleton Gaines. Established in 1821, it is best known for its role in the Battle of Mobile Bay during the American Civil War.

Photography Now & Then Notes:
- Series Photos
- The Now photo is one that is almost always taken the day of the blog post. In some instances, posts may be backdated if internet access is not available on the day of the photo or other reasons prevent posting Photography Now and Then.
- The Then photo is usually a randomly selected older photograph from a batch of photos specifically “curated” for Photography Now and Then.
- Each photo in this series is an “original work” – a copyright term – of Michael Goad.
- Reference links were accessed on the date the blog post was published, unless otherwise stated.
- The title convention for Photography Now & Then blog posts evolved early on from one word related to each photo separated by “&” to usually being the first word in the caption description for each photo.
