This weekend I went to meet my family over at Kennedy Space Center where we did Astronaut training which was pretty cool. Since I was driving all the way over there for the day I left a little early so I could squeeze in a sunrise at Cocoa Beach Pier. […]
One of the things that I will definitely miss now that my inlaws are moving closer to us is my photo trips to Viera Wetlands and the Cocoa Beach Pier. They lived on the Eastern side of Orlando so it was only about an hour trip to these two locations. […]
One of my favorite things to try to capture in sunrise photos are silhouettes. In the first shot here of the Cocoa Beach Pier I was able to silhouette some fisherman against the rising sun. The people closest to the sun are full silhouettes, but it is amazing to me […]
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 […]
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 […]
It has been awhile since I posted a photo from anywhere besides Tampa, Clearwater or St Augustine so I wanted to throw a different area out tonight. These two shots are from Cocoa Beach Pier in Cocoa Beach, Florida. I didn’t realize until I was posting them that I had […]
Another quick post form the Cocoa Beach Pier. I’m going with contrasting shots again. One from before dawn with nice blue tones and the second taken from about the same spot taken after sunrise with much warmer tones. I also zoomed in a fair amount on the second shot to […]
Since we are having a little cold snap I decided to go with some nice warm pictures for today. Both of these photos of the Cocoa Beach Pier were taken on a not so warm Thanksgiving morning, but the sunrise colors really give a warm feeling to both of them. […]
More Thanksgiving break photos and back to the Cocoa Beach Pier. I arrived before sunrise to set up and take some pre-sunrise photos. The two photos today were taken 21 minutes apart, but have a completely different feel to them. The first shot, Tiki Bar Dawn, was taken at 7:45. […]
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 […]
