Travel photos (anything outside of home area of Tampa, St Petersburg)
On our Costa Rica trip last year we saw a good variety of wildlife. We saw all 4 monkey species endemic to Costa Rica. We also saw both a two tied and several 3 toed sloths. We saw a couple eyelash vipers, a basilisk lizard and a variety of birds […]
Two more views of the Golden Gate Bridge from California, last summer. The bridge was definitely one of my highest priority photo locations from our California trip last year. I have seen so many pictures of the bridge and wanted to capture a few of my own and from as […]
One of the must visit sites for our California trip this year was the Hearst Castle in San Simeon, California. It was an amazing place although the outdoor pool was under construction. The indoor pool however was spectacular. It’s hard to get a reference of the size of these places […]
My first post of 2018 is a look back to January of 2017. I still have quite a few pictures of our Costa Rica trip to share. Today I have a Costa Rica jungle sunrise taken from the deck at Lapa Rios ecolodge. This was a beautiful viewpoint where you […]

One of my families favorite places from our trip to California was Garrapata State Park in the Big Sur. My kids loved the beach which had a bunch of driftwood and they spent two separate days playing on the beach and building houses from the driftwood. As a photographer I […]
Here are a few more of my favorite bird shots from Costa Rica. I am not truly a birder, but when you go some places, the birds are so pretty they are hard to ignore. There are a lot of cool bird species in Costa Rica of which we saw […]
