Two shots of the Miami skyline today. They were taken 20 minutes apart yet have a very different look to them. The first shot was taken while the sky was still dark and I was tightly zoomed in on the biggest mass of buildings in the Miami downtown area. This […]

Norwegian Getaway and Miami
One of the most amazing things I have seen on my two photo trips to Miami is the huge cruise ships making Uturns in the small waterfront area near the Port. Some of the ships that turn around in this area between downtown Miami and Watson Island and the Port […]
Best Time for Photography
For cityscapes which comprise the majority of my photos at this time, the edges of the day are the best times to shoot. My favorite is the period just before sunrise as it is quiet and there usually aren’t many people around, but the buildings are still lit up and […]
Miami and the Blue Moon
We just returned from a long weekend in Hollywood, Florida. I was able to sneak out early one morning and take a quick trip down to Miami to capture the skyline and the blue moon setting over the city. Last time I went I was able to get right up […]
Back to Tampa
It’s been awhile since I posted any Tampa shots so here are a few. I’m looking forward to getting out soon and shooting some new stuff.
Centro Ybor and Taberno Cigars
Ybor City is full of history and is a great place to explore near Tampa. Ybor City was known for its cigar factories although there are only a few left. Now it also has an entertainment district, Centro Ybor. The first shot is of Centro Ybor where the Muvico is. […]
Hillsborough River Views
The two shots tonight were taken from almost directly opposite each other on opposite sides of the Hillsborough River. The first shot was a sunrise and I focused on the reflection of a few of the downtown Tampa buildings. The water was very calm and there was even a little […]
Tampa Jet Skis and Sunflare
This is definitely the first time that I have captured people on jet skis on the Hillsborough River driving through Tampa. I was set up at the Platt Street Bridge, waiting for traffic to pass so I could take my shot when I saw them coming. I waited until they […]
Tampa Sundown
I need to find some new viewpoints in Tampa. On my last trip out I took a bunch of pictures of the skyline from various points along the water, near Amalie Arena, or from one of the taller parking garages. However, these are all viewpoints I have captured in the […]
Tampa Riverwalk Views
Today’s post has a couple of new views from along the Tampa Riverwalk. The first shot is one of my favorites, the Platt Street Bridge view. This gives you a great skyline view with some nice reflections in the Hillsborough River. This is one of the widest shots I’ve post […]
