I had this morning free and it worked out about as good as I could have asked for. I started at Venice Rookery. Venice Rookery is an island in a small pond in Venice, Florida where a bunch of birds nest every year. It is mostly Great Blue Herons and […]
It’s been too long, but I finally made it back to downtown Tampa and caught a decent sunrise. I hung out a the University of Tampa and walked up and down the Hillsborough River looking for the best angles. There were just enough clouds in the sky today to provide […]
Even on a day where I feel like a I didn’t really see anything I still come home with pics I’m happy with every time I visit the Circle B. This morning was a chilly, foggy sunrise and that is what ended up making the day. I got some really […]
This weekend I went to meet my family over at Kennedy Space Center where we did Astronaut training which was pretty cool. Since I was driving all the way over there for the day I left a little early so I could squeeze in a sunrise at Cocoa Beach Pier. […]
Got some nice shots of the Wolf Moon rising over Tampa on Friday night. The key to making the moon look so large is being a good distance away (we were probably 12-13 miles from downtown Tampa) and using a long telephoto lens (mine was a 560mm equivalent).
Finally got the chance to check out a site I have been wanting to visit for awhile, Lake Apopka Wildlife Drive. I made 2 laps through the reserve which took about 3 hours. I saw quite a few nice birds including Osprey, Red-Shouldered Hawks, Coopers Hawks, and a pair of […]
Anyone who knows me knows that I have always been fascinated with snakes. Unfortunately I have not had great luck finding them recently. This morning after taking the dog for a walk I decided the weather was too nice to sit at home and headed to Weedon Island. Just past […]
The fastest growing area of downtown Tampa is Water Street Tampa. It is a series of developments by Jeff Vinik’s (the owner of the Tampa Bay Lightning) group. This is over near Amalie Arena. I noticed that they had some pretty nice Christmas Decorations so took a trip over to […]
I had the morning off today so made a trip to… you guessed it, the Circle B Bar Reserve. I still have trouble going anywhere else because I know if I go there for a few hours I will definitely come home with some cool pictures. This morning was beautiful […]
Had the morning off so ran out to the Circle B Bar Reserve with a pit stop at Lake Morton on the way home. Got a few decent bird pics including a nice closeup of an Osprey. Found a pretty cool bug called a wheel bug with something it had […]
