Green Cay Wetlands is another one of my favorite photography places. Green Cay Wetlands is a former working farm and now has been transformed into a water reclamation area and a wildlife haven. There is a 1.5 mile boardwalk that gives you great access to the wetlands. This is another spot where you can see just about any bird native to Florida. Other commonly seen animals include, gators, otters, and recently bobcats including some young ones. ...
I am contintuing my series of favorite places with Three Lakes WMA and Joe Overstreet Road in Kissimme, Florida.

There are several endangered or threatened species that are regularly seen in this area the best of which are Crested Caracara, Snail Kites and Whooping Cranes. There area lot of owls and eagles in this area also. I have also seen otter, hogs,...
Today I am going to start a series about my favorite places. Since I just visited last weekend I will start with Viera Wetlands. Viera Wetlands is a man made wetland at a water treatment plant. That may not sound pleasant, but there is no smell and it has created a great habitat that helps to filter the water. There is a wide variety of wildlife at Viera Wetlands including otters, alligators, deer, turles, frogs, and just about any type of bird that lives...
On our trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks we were able to see some fall splotches here and there of fall color. I was frustrated overall with trying to capture good photos of the fall colors because it was scattered throughout the area and I could not really find the scene I was looking for. On our last day in the park as we were driving toward our cabin for the night these big storm clouds rolled in. The contrast of the dark storm...
Today’s photo is from the St Petersburg Pier at sunset. Including the viewfinder (binoculars or whatever you call that thing) is something that has become popular lately on a lot of the photo sharing sites. We have all seen hundreds of shots from the classic locations such as Half Dome, the Grand Canyon, Antelope Canyon, the Grand Tetons, etc. Just because the shot has already been done doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t add it top your...

I was born and have lived in the Tampa Bay area my whole life. Photography started to be a hobby for me in college when I began to try to capture all of the wonderful animals and parks in Florida to share with my friends and family. I started with an Olympus point and shoot and then joined the Canon family with a Canon 10D. I currently shoot with a Canon 40D but am looking to upgrade in the near future. After my two daughters were born I began to concentrate on areas closer to home. I photograph my girls daily and have since Lindsay was born on May 9, 2008. Outside of that I have focused on trips closer to home, especially downtown Tampa, St Petersburg, and lately Florida’s many living history museums. Photography has become my passion and maybe someday will even turn into my profession…
