On the morning of 2/27/24 in Ocean City, I’m usually up before sunrise so out I went. Still, some remnants of the full moon left so thought I’d try it with a couple of landmarks as I wandered the downtown area with the first 2 images below.
Yes, I was lazy, my back was hurting and I didn’t grab the tripod as I should have. Something I promise not to do anytime I’m working nights from now on. I’m going to visit in the offseason again next year because I missed many opportunities.

With the water in the 40s I didn’t feel like dipping my toes in yet.
It’s such a contrast from the other 10 months of the year. Come January and February the place is a series of builders, maintenance, and infrastructure workers. Of course, a few locals and the staff for some hotels and restaurants but it’s nothing like the other months.
I’m not a big crowd person, for some reason, they don’t bother me that much here during the summers.
