Last year for my birthday trip we went to Las Vegas. We had a great time and will definitely go back, but not for a few years. This year we decided on something a little more laid back. We took a drive down to the Florida Keys and spent two […]
Florida Other
Venice Beach, Florida
On the way back from our trip to the keys, we spent the last night in Venice Beach, Florida. My wife had gone there as a kid looking for shark teeth and I had never been. We were told at the hotel that people are not finding them on the […]
Jules Undersea Lodge
Did you know that Florida actually has an underwater hotel. It is called Jules Undersea Lodge and is located on Key Largo, Florida and their website is here. You can read about the history and how the hotel came to be. It was a really cool experience and was a […]
Little Palm Island
We just returned from a nice trip down to the Florida Keys for my birthday weekend. Our first stop, where we spent two nights was Little Palm Island. Little Palm Island is a beautiful resort with a very laid back and relaxed atmosphere. It also has some excellent food. So […]
Cocoa Beach, Florida
A few shots of Cocoa Beach Pier to start the week. I did not have a lot of hope for this sunrise as there was pretty thick cloud cover hanging low in the sky. The rising sun eventually did break through and created some pretty nice light over the Cocoa […]
Cocoa Beach Pier Sunrise
One of my favorite photography locations on the east coast of Florida is the Cocoa Beach Pier. I am usually amazed by how many other people there are out to watch the sunrise as most of the places I go I am pretty much alone for the sunrise. I did […]
Withlacoochee River Park
I visited a new park today called Withlacooche River Park. It was nice to get out in nature for a little while and I didn’t see a single other soul the whole time I was there. I did a little hiking, but mainly liked the river area. I have always […]
Moon over Miami
A few more shots today of our trip to Miami that coincided with the Blue Moon. Both shots included a moon that was composited back into the image. For the Tight Skyline shot I changed the location for the purpose of the photo. For the wide shot it is in […]
Hollywood Beach Sunrise
Last two shots from our most recent trip to Hollywood Beach, Florida. This was from a bit of an overcast sunrise so it wasn’t the most colorful sky, but still was pretty. These shots were both taken at the North end of the boardwalk area which is a nice way […]
Miami Skyline
Two shots of the Miami skyline today. They were taken 20 minutes apart yet have a very different look to them. The first shot was taken while the sky was still dark and I was tightly zoomed in on the biggest mass of buildings in the Miami downtown area. This […]
