We pulled off the road to catch all the lightning exploding across the sky while we were driving through in the Everglades along the main road.

An Everglades Sunset

The Milky Way over the Everglades National Park!
We went to take photos from the meteor shower, but too many clouds to the north – northeast…. So there was a little clear sky to catch part of the milky way though. There were too many clouds, but managed to get something, including a few streaks from things – meteors? Could have been a lightning bug… I just do not know.

A trip to Pine Glades Lake in the Everglades National Park at sunset
We had a photo session out in the Everglades last night and the sunset was spectacular! We knew the mosquitoes were going to be intense so tried the Thermacell product – once it started up – it worked like a champ! I also had netting on and that really worked too.
The colors and hues were just incredible and that reflection from the still water just enhanced the whole image!

A New Day
Dawn of a new day in the Everglades National Park
Everglades Moon with a Sunrise
Got up at 4am to meet my friend in the Everglades, We met at Long Pine Key in the parking lot around 5:30am. I got dressed for the occasion with long pants, long shirt sprayed with Deet, vest, boots, buff neck guard, hat with head netting. I also used a set of golf gloves for both hands because the mosquitoes nailed my hands last time – even with bug spray! I was ready for those blood suckers this time. I could hear them buzzing relentlessly trying to get to any flesh they could find.
So when my friend arrived, I walked over to his truck and he hops out in shorts and a t-shirt! Then asks “how are the bugs?”, he instantly became a Latin gourmet for the mosquitoes! He was back in that truck so fast!!!!
Anyway, my friend stayed in his truck putting on his bug gear while I went over to the lake to setup. I took a series of shots and this was one of the first ones. At Long Pine Key with the moon in the sky and the sunrise on the move.
