Florida Polytechnic University in Lakeland, Florida was built in the middle of nowhere, but has one of the most eye catching buildings in Florida. The Science and Technology building can be seen from Interstate 4 and was definitely worth making the drive (a little over an hour) to photograph it.
Here are a couple more cool shots from Florida Polytechnic University. The first shot is a side view from after the fog rolled in. I incorporated some of the pickerelweed that lines the pond around the building into the photo. The second shot is straight on from one of the […]
Quick post of a few Tampa shots. I need to get back out soon and get some new stuff.

A quick post tonight. Two shots from Price Lake along the Blue Ridge Parkway. I shot this on my way back to our cabin near Boone from the Linn Cove Viaduct. There were some nice colors and a nice little mist hanging over the lake. [facebook]
