If you have been visiting my photoblog for awhile you may remember that last year I posted alot of photos from the annual Hampton Beach Sand Sculpture contest. This past week the 2009 contest was held. I was sadly not able to stay to see any of the finished designs but I was lucky to of least see one of the artists in the very early stages of creating his sculpture. If you want to see the photos from the 2008 Sand Sculpture competition check out the ones I posted here last year.
Here is a shot of one of the master sand sculptors from last weekend hard at work perfecting his sculpture. If you click the image to make it larger you can see he is actually making the eyebrow in this shot.

Just click on the thumbnails of the photos in the gallery below to make them bigger. » Continue Reading…
Here are the master sand sculptors hard at work.
There was an advertising area for sponsors of the event that all of the sand sculptors worked on together in between working on their individual contest entries.

I had no idea he would be riding on an elephant!
On Saturday I went to the annual Hampton Beach sand sculpture contest. The works of art that the sculptors made out of sand were amazing to say the least. This one of the sun I think was my favorite sand sculpture of the contest.
Over the next few days I will be posting some more of my favorite shots from the sand sculpture contest so be sure to come back.
