Sunrise and sunset are the two premier photography times of the day for the type of photography I like to do. There are a few differences between the two. I am generally out at sunrise because that way I can get out and do some photography and be home not […]

Clearwater Beach and Pier 60
I’m still playing catch up and working on all the new photos I have taken. I finally finished my Clearwater Beach photos from Spring Break which was only about 3 months ago. I spent two consecutive afternoons and sunsets on Clearwater Beach and got quite a few good shots. [facebook] […]
Captain Memo’s Pirate Ship near Pier 60, Clearwater Beach, Florida
Yesterday while waiting for the sunset I saw Captain Memo’s Pirate Ship sail by Pier 60 on Clearwater Beach. It was kind of interesting to watch because I had just come back from St Augustine where we had gone on the Pirate Ship Black Raven. The ship itself looks very […]
SIlhouettes at Sunrise
Yep, I was back at it again. I made it back to Viera Wetlands for sunrise which turned out to have some beautiful clouds today. Of course the first thing I did was to head to the area where the Great Blue Herons are nest building so that I could […]
Surfing on Thanksgiving, Cocoa Beach Florida
This morning I went out for sunrise at the Cocoa Beach Pier. I got some good shots of the pier which I will post in the next week or two, but I am going to start with something different. Despite the chilly (for Florida) temperature of around 40 degrees there […]
Partial Solar Eclipse – November 3, 2013

Sunrise Silhouettes
One of my favorite type of images, silhouettes. The Brown Pelican photo is one that I have really been looking for as it is so representative of Florida. The Great Blue Heron photo is one that I have captured at Viera Wetlands a few times. [facebook]
Viera Wetlands Birds
Florida’s wading birds are usually pretty approachable and fairly easy to photograph. That’s why I like to look for different ways to capture them. Two of my favorite ways are capturing their reflection in the water or as silhouettes. The key to the first method is getting the right angle. […]
More of the Supermoon
A couple more pics of the supermoon. Tonight I have another silhouette of the crescent moon on top of one of the minarets at the University of Tampa. The other shot is a little over the top. It is an HDR with the moon added back in. The moon is […]
Supermoon Over University of Tampa
This morning I had a chance to get out and take a few shots of the Supermoon in downtown Tampa. The supermoon is the point when the moon is closest to the earth in its orbit during the year. I used the Photographer’s Ephemeris to look for where the moon […]
