This morning my plan was to go to the South Skyway Bridge Fishing Pier to capture the full moon setting over the water and the sun rising over the Sunshine Skyway Bridge. However, on arrival, I was told that the bridge is only open for fishermen between sunrise and sunset. […]

Supermoon over Tampa
Tonight’s full moon is supposed to be the closest to earth and therefore the biggest moon in the past 70 years. So of course I had to go try to take some pictures of it. The hard part was trying to find a subject to include in addition to the […]
Around Downtown
Two shots tonight. The first is a view of the Tampa Riverwalk and the downtown skyline. This was taken from the Cass Street Rail Bridge. I like how the skyline seems to stack on top of the Tampa Museum of Art and how it shows a nice portion of the […]
Moon over Miami
A few more shots today of our trip to Miami that coincided with the Blue Moon. Both shots included a moon that was composited back into the image. For the Tight Skyline shot I changed the location for the purpose of the photo. For the wide shot it is in […]
Miami Skyline
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 […]
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 […]
Lunar Eclipse April 2015
Last two shots from the lunar eclipse on April 2015. Again, I used the University of Tampa to help bring some context to the image and to make it more interesting instead of just shooting the moon. All of these shots were taken with my telephoto zoom lens to make […]
Finally back to St Petersburg
It’s been awhile, but I finally made it back over to downtown St Petersburg to do a little photography. I have been really focused on Tampa for the last couple of months and was needing a little variety. I arrived before sunrise and parked at Albert Whitted Park. I began […]
Cass Street Rail Bridge, Tampa
The other night when I went out to shoot verticals, I knew one subject that would work well that I definitely wanted to capture, the Cass Street Rail Bridge. I do not know if it is still a working rail bridge as I have never seen the draw bridge down […]
St Petersburg Sunrise
It had been a while since I had been out shooting so I made a point to take time to do some photography this weekend. I decided on sunrise on Sunday. Using the program Photographer’s Ephemeris I scouted around to see what the angle and time of sunrise was going […]
