Life will find a way – Islamorada

Walking along a path lined with small mangrove trees on the bay in Islamorada, I was amazed of how these mangroves can grow in the most inhospitable conditions. Islamorada, a “Village of Islands,” is an incorporated village in Monroe County, Florida

A Dark Sunrise

Sometimes we are all faced with gloom in a moment of life, but it will pass. The clouds were dense and the winds were strong. This long exposure flattened the sea, giving the image the illusion of a small measure of calm amidst the nature’s fury.

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.
