A recent trip to Haulover Beach for a Sunrise photo shoot. Overcast with 20knot winds made taking photos a challenge. I had fun walking around finding locations to photograph.

Dania Pier on a Windy Day
I got to the beach around 6:15am and noticed it was still very dark. Shooting Landscape photography when the wind is blowing and salt water spray is covering your gear, makes things tough. Normally, you see some light on the horizon, but not this day. The clouds were very thick and the winds were strong.

High winds, rough water and high tides did not keep the lifeguards from having a morning paddle

The shoreline in this area is of limestone and extends to as far as you can see. The surfaces have been weathered from the pounding of the waves.
The 1970s – The Beachlife in Miami
The best of times for kids growing up was during the late 60’s and the 70s where we enjoyed a simple life. Had loads of friends and always something to do. The ocean was very much part of our lives growing up. The beach when we were small, playing in the sand and exploring the water’s edge. As we got older, fishing off the piers and snorkeling along the shores & jetties. We surfed, swam, fished and did most anything else that we could do on or below the water.

I own the copyright to these photos and wish recognition for my work. I spent many long hours that turned into days scanning each negative and slide then had to try to recover the colors and tones from faded images to create these memories. Let me know if you wish a print of any of my collection. All Rights are Reserved
Thanks Everyone.
Glowing Sunrise, Stuart, FL – Photo Art
I was in Stuart, FL in June and had an opportunity to take some sunrise shots. Since I was not familiar with the area, I asked a bar tender at Outback Steak House while eating dinner if he knew any areas or scenic places to photograph. He mentioned this one location that offered public parking and easy access. I was really pleasantly surprised when I go to the beach and saw how beautiful the shoreline was. The Anastasia Limestone Formations run from Palm Beach to St. Augustine and are unusual because they are either buried or underwater normally. This section in Stuart, was simply amazing and stood 8-10ft in some places
