Long Pine Key – Everglades

Photo by Lee Smith

Hoping and waiting to catch the light and clouds just right. On this day, I left my home and saw clouds in the sky – only to arrive at this location to see the skies had completely cleared. I got my camera & tripod setup then waited for the morning glow at Long Pine Key in the Everglades National Park. I took several long exposures and even a few HDR’s as the light brightened on the horizon. Nature’s beauty appears in the moments between light and dark. (3/8/2014)

Flying between the branches for an eagle is easy, but for a photographer trying to follow, a royal pain.

A Field of Dreams

A visit to Vista View Park in Davie Florida. A wide open field with cloudy skies and no one around.
