I ran out of pictures of St Petersburg to post so headed back to the St Pete Pier again this morning. Most places I go before sunset I am mostly alone, but that is definitely not the case at the Pier. There are always tons of walkers, joggers, etc first […]

Peaches the Flamingo
This morning I made yet another trip out to Fort Desoto. My goal was to see Peaches the Flamingo. Peaches was one of the flamingoes that were blown in from either the Yucatan or Cuba during Hurricane Idalia. A few days later this flamingo was found in distress, floundering in […]
More Florida Flamingos
Got to photograph a separate group of 3 flamingos this morning. They are slightly closer to home for me than the Fort Desoto flamingos but in a spot that is a little more difficult to access. Anyway, I’m glad I made the trip over and found them as I am […]
Florida Milky Way
Headed out last last night (Very early this morning) to shoot the Milky Way with a few photography friends. I keep saying every year that I need to capture the Milky Way more but have only done it twice before last night, once in Grand Teton National Park where it […]

Circle B Sunrise and Vibrating Gator
A quick post today with a few shots from the Circle B Bar Reserve in Lakeland. Whenever I go my goal is to make it out to Lake Hancock for the sunrise as I have seen a few of the best sunrises I have ever seen from there. This morning […]
Tampa Verticals
Back to the University of Tampa to capture some more of my favorite views of Tampa. Sunday morning I captured the crescent moon, Venus (just to left of Sykes building), Orion and Betelgeuse (red star slightly to R of Sykes). Pretty cool. Makes sweating at 7 AM worthwhile. The second […]
Storm over Lake Louisa State Park
During our trip to Lake Louisa State Park this summer there were several big thunderstorms. This storm we were able to watch across Lake Louisa and fortunately did not come our way. I have not taken the opportunity to shoot lightning very often, but this was pretty easy to capture […]
The new St Pete Pier
Made my first of I am sure many visits to photograph the new St Pete Pier. I am impressed! There is a lot of space and a lot of different attractions and it looks good too.
