Photos from St Petersburg, Florida
Back across the Bay today for a few sunrise shots of St Petersburg. The waterfront in St Petersburg is so much better utilized than the waterfront in Tampa although Tampa is quickly catching up in that regard. Of course the whole Pier debacle does not help the St Peterburg waterfront. […]
One of the things that I really need to practice doing more is taking photos in the vertical orientation. Several of my photo requests have been looking for photos in the vertical orientation and I normally default to the horizontal orientation, especially for my cityscapes and landscape images.

If you don’t have a boat there are a couple of options to photograph the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in St Petersburg, Florida. One option is from the East Beach turnaround at Fort Desoto Park in Tierra Verde. This requires a longer lens and is best at a certain time of […]
