Photos from Tampa, Florida
My internet connection has been down for the last 2 days, but it is now fixed so here are a couple of fourth of July shots. These were from the fireworks at Channelside in Tampa, Florida. The first shot is a composite. The city scene was taken while waiting for […]
Today I have a shot of Splitsville. I have never been, but it is supposed to be a cool place to go bowling and hang out. The sign says this is the World’s Largest Bowling Pin. Unfortunately this is one of the few places still remaining open in Channelside. Hopefully […]
Here is a new shot and one from around Christmas time. The new shot is the Hotel Floridan at sunrise. This was a famous hotel in Tampa’s history, but had been closed for awhile until its recent reopening. I like the neon sign, even with the O not shining. The […]
These are a few shots that I took after photographing the supermoon setting the other morning. The timing was great as the sunrise was immediately after the moonset so I just turned around and started photographing in the other direction. Both of these shots were taken from one of my […]
Just a few shots from Tampa tonight. My favorite skyline view, although taken on a foggy morning. The second was taken from inside a shelter in a park in downtown Tampa. It has a nice Florida design on the ground. I do not know anything else about it but would […]

My posting schedule will probably be pretty light over the next month. We are in the process of moving and have a lot going on right now. I will still post sporadically hopefully and will be back to a more normal schedule again in June. The two shots tonight are […]
These two places are kind of at opposite ends of the spectrum. The Glazer Children’s Museum is of course all about kids. There are a lot of things to do there and if you have kids it is definitely worth a visit. Harbour Island on the other hand is a […]
I generally prefer to shoot my photos of downtown in the early morning. That way I can capture night like pictures before sunrise, the sunrise itself and the early morning. The other huge benefit is there are very few people to get in my pictures. The morning I shot these […]
It’s amazing that you can find some backyard wildlife even in the middle of the very developed area of South Tampa. This afternoon along the fence in my backyard I spotted these pair of mating moths. After looking them up I found out that they are Pink-striped Oakworm Moths (Anisota […]
