South Padre in January Blue/Grayscale

After a nice noon meal at South Padre Brewing Company with Julie and Ian, my camera setting were off big time. It was the Blue Lagoon instead of Laguna Padre. I was frustrated with my shots and did not know how to fix it. Thanks to Steve Norris's Photography Class I can at least attempt to fix it when it occurs it the future and understand more. Thanks again Steve. I am posting some of in grayscale because I like the captured behavior of the birds and ducks.
