I took this photo last weekend during sunrise in Pittsburgh. We got a good show from Mother Nature that morning.
Klien Bonaire
Nice sunset over the small island known as Klien Bonaire. I’d go back!!
Typical Iceland Countryside
Iceland is full of spots like this. Just one great view after another…
Shirley Heights Lookout
I captured this photo looking down onto the English Harbor from Shirley Heights in Antiqua last year. Blair took us up there for sunset and we stayed a while to watch the light change. Great spot!!
Up Palm
Here is a photo from a recent trip to Playa del Carmen….
Skagafjörður
Yesterday I posted a photo from an Icelandic turf church. That photo was taken a few miles down the road from the hotel (Hofsstaðir Guesthouse) we used. Behind the hotel is a beautiful valley and fjord called Skagafjörður. I took this photo the morning we checked out looking over Skagafjörður.
Layers Of Water
I took this photo a few months ago during sunrise at the Point State Park. The water fountain at the “point” can make for some great photo opportunities throughout the day. Plus, you have the river in the background, which adds another layer of depth to the photo.
Everglades Safari
During a past Florida trip, MJ and I completed an Everglades tour on one of these air boats. It was cool, but not exactly as interesting as I thought it would be. I’m not sure what I thought would happen or what we’d see, but it was “ho-hum”.
Note, the tour operator was great. I just wasn’t as impressed with the Everglades swamp as I expected….. Maybe because it wasn’t drained (that’s a joke, let’s not get political).
Bonaire's Salt Flats
Honest, I don’t have much to say today. So, just enjoy this pretty aerial photo from the island of Bonaire. Cargill operates this site and creates food products with the sea salt they harvest from the salt flats.
Vik
This little church in the village of Vik is often photographed from numerous perspectives. There are a couple of cool rock formations in the ocean off the coast of Vik (behind the church from this angle). In the future, I’ll share a photo of this church from a different angle where you’ll be able to see them as well. In this photo, I was trying to frame the church with the purple Lupine wildflowers in the foreground. By the way, the Lupine flowers are everywhere in Iceland. Anyway, I hope you like this photo as much as I do.
Nati
I captured this photo when I was in Cincinnati last season covering the Steelers/Bengals game. Jake and I carpooled down there to cover the night game. The next morning before heading back to Pittsburgh, we went over to the Kentucky side of the river to get this photo looking back into the city.
Side note, Cincinnati has a bunch of nicknames including Cincy, The Nati, The Queen City, The Queen of the West, The Blue Chip City and The City of Seven Hills…….
Marco Beach
Yesterday I posted a sunset time lapse video from my hotel balcony. Today I have a sunset photo from the same spot on Marco Island Florida.
Marco Island Sunset Time Lapse
Here is a quick time lapse I captured this week in Marco Island. The sunset wasn’t great on this night, but I loved the clouds…. I captured this from the hotel balcony. It was a shame we had to come back.
Miami Beach Pool
What more can I say? This is, what it is. Confidante Hotel and Spa in Mid-Beach area of Miami Beach.
UFO Observation Deck
This space craft shaped observation deck and restaurant sit high above the bridge over the Danube River in Bratislava Slovakia.
West End
I captured this photo a few weeks ago, very early in the morning. That’s the only reason I could take this photo, otherwise the traffic would have been too busy. For those of you not from Pittsburgh, this is the West End Bridge.
Sunbeams Behind Pittsburgh
This was a great and beautiful morning, but what’s up with that little bit of sun at the top of the US Steel Building???
Saturday Sunrise
I met up with Brad this morning for a sunrise photo walk. The sky was very interesting this morning in downtown Pittsburgh.
Sun Reflection
Yesterday I posted a drone photo from Miami Beach. Today I have a drone photo I took from downtown Pittsburgh. I took this last August right before dusk with the sun shining off the glass buildings. Pittsburgh has a nice downtown area.
41st Street Lifeguard Shack
Miami has very cool lifeguard stations along Miami Beach. I don’t know how many variations they have, but they are all a wonderful Art Deco style. This is the one at 41st Street during sunrise.
If someone watched me while I photographed this spot, I”m sure they wondered what was wrong with me. I didn’t have time during the sunrise to photograph multiple lifeguard shacks, they are too far apart. So, I probably took 500 photos of this one from different perspective, different light (before, during and after the sunrise), different cameras, etc.. I’m sure they thought I lost my mind….. Maybe I did, but I think the final product was worth it. Oh…and the homeless people sleeping under the lifeguard shack probably wondered about me as well.
