Crested Caracaras are probably my favorite Florida bird of prey although burrowing owls would give them a run for their money. I’m not sure what it is that I like about them, but I just think they have a cool look to them. In Florida, they occupy the central and […]
My posting schedule will probably be pretty light over the next month. We are in the process of moving and have a lot going on right now. I will still post sporadically hopefully and will be back to a more normal schedule again in June. The two shots tonight are […]
The first outing I took after getting my new Canon 5D Mark III a couple of months ago was to the Sunshine Skyway Bridge for a sunrise. The shots did not turn out quite like I hoped, but I got a couple of good ones. The other shot is a […]

I finally got around to finishing all of my processing from my Christmas trip to Disney and my visit to a bunch of the hotels. These are definitely two of my favorite hotels, the Grand Floridian and Wilderness Lodge. [facebook]
In honor of the first round of the NFL draft tonight I decided to post a few more shots from my tour of Raymond James Stadium. It was not easy growing up as a Tampa Bay Buccaneer fan for the 80s and until the late 90s when Tony Dungy arrived. […]
