Thanksgiving morning I headed out before the family was up to capture the sunrise at the Cocoa Beach Pier. I am calling the two shots tonight fire and ice because one has the very warm sunrise colors and the other has the very cool predawn colors. I have also been […]

Tampa Theater Christmas
I am a Tampa native and have lived in this area my whole life. It was not until a few years ago that I visited Tampa Theater for the first time. I really enjoyed it and have been back a couple times, although not as often as I would like. […]
Keel and Curley Winery, Plant City, Florida
Today we made our first visit to Keel and Curley Winery in Plant City, Florida. Keel and Curley Winery started in 2003 when “Joe Keel, a central Florida blueberry farmer wanted to find something to do with his end of crop blueberries. As in most produce farming, once the market […]
Ron Jon Surf Shop, Cocoa Beach, Florida
On Thanksgiving morning I headed over to Cocoa Beach to take some shots of the Cocoa Beach Pier at sunrise. I already posted a few shots of some surfers out on a chilly morning and will have a few of the pier following soon. One of my other targets for […]
Dick Greco Streetcar Station Again
Two more shots of my favorite streetcar station. The first shot is my favorite angle because of the statue. The statue is Dick Greco, a former mayor of Tampa, who the streetcar station is named after. I really like the design of this station. The glass dome is very cool […]

SIlhouettes at Sunrise
Yep, I was back at it again. I made it back to Viera Wetlands for sunrise which turned out to have some beautiful clouds today. Of course the first thing I did was to head to the area where the Great Blue Herons are nest building so that I could […]

This morning I went out for sunrise at the Cocoa Beach Pier. I got some good shots of the pier which I will post in the next week or two, but I am going to start with something different. Despite the chilly (for Florida) temperature of around 40 degrees there […]
Tampa Convention Center and Oaklawn Cemetery
Tonight’s post has one of my most photographed places, the Tampa Convention Center, and one that I have only been to once, Oaklawn Cemetery. Oaklawn Cemetery is a historic cemetery that is actually located in downtown, but I never even knew about it until I recently ran into it on […]
St Petrsburg Sunrise
I think I have probably used the title St Petersburg Sunrise for multiple posts, but I could not think of anything more appropriate for this one. These shots are from the day I went out to see the partial solar eclipse. While waiting for the sunrise, one sailboat left the […]
