Sarasota Bay Fishing Pier

Last night I headed down to the fishing pier in Sarasota to catch the colors and take a few photos. As usual there were a lot of people fishing and as usual there was a lot of nice things to see. I shared a photo with some friends from my iPhone however one was in Japan, and so the same sun that was setting for me it was just rising for him. Small world, isn't it.

Night Scene from the Pier

A scene of the sidewalk from the pier. Normally I shoot in the other direction, but turning around can be cool also. I sit here several times a week, it's the midway point of my walk. It's a quiet spot on the water and a place to chill for a few minutes before I head back.

Morning Reflection

I came here early one morning a few weeks ago to find the water like a sheet of glass. It was just before sunrise and everything was quiet and still. After I took this shot I walked onto the dock and at that very same moment the sun rose. Instantly a light breeze picked up such that the water was disturbed. These moments are fleeting and I'm glad to have witnessed the morning transition when I did.

Downtown Tampa

When anyone asks where I live, I say Tampa. But in fact I live an hour south. Nevertheless it's the closest big city and most people recognize the name. However, I've spent very little time in Tampa since moving here about ten years ago. So I've started driving up and walking around to take a few photos. This image is a section of downtown from a recent trip. There is a lot more to see and once I figure my way around I'll take a few more. So now you know where I'm from, even if I'm not.

911 Museum

Last summer I was at the 911 memorial right after it opened to the public. These people are looking into into the museum which is all underground and above them In the glass is the reflection of the newly constructed freedom tower.

Boarder in Flight

This was taken at The Bordr Am skateboard tournament in Bradenton a couple of weekends ago. It's pretty cool what these guys and gals can do. Mainly everyone was having fun and just doing their thing. There were free hair cuts, all kinds of gear, and plenty of good music from a DJ to keep the party going. I suppose the competition can be serious, but everyone was having so much fun it was hard to tell.

Urban Sunset

Because I live in Florida there's water everywhere. Inlets, bays, waterways, rivers, ...the list goes on. So this is an urban sunset, meaning that I just happen to be driving by the water and pulled over to take a picture. Every day the sun sets on urban areas, but somehow the fact that there's a body of water makes it just a little bit special. Don't you think so?

Shops at Columbus Circle

Last time I was in New York I hung out here after walking my feet off all over the city. It's an upscale mall in the Time Warner Center that has some nice spots to grab a pastry and chill with a coffee. Also, being so close to Lincoln Center there is a venue here for Jazz should you be so inclined. I was content to just sit and people watch. One thing about New York, this is the perfect place to people watch.

Stanley Park Path

This is a path through Stanley Park in Vancouver. This is one of world's great urban parks, easily on par with Central Park, some would say it exceeds. The air is cleansed by the abundance of trees and walking on this path you could easily forget you are in a major city. If I was king of the world my first decree would be that every city must have a big beautiful park like this. But in the meantime, Vancouver will do.
