I took this last autumn when I was in Vancouver walking back to the hotel. One of these days I'll learn how to get a good moon picture. I have a feeling it has to do with really good timing and expensive lenses which effectively narrows the odds you'll see an awesome moon from me anytime soon. That being said, there's always cool reflections or glow during a full moon, and that, is a little more down my alley.
Vermillion Lake is just outside Banff in Alberta Canada, part of Banff National Park. It's impossible to drive anywhere and not be impressed by the scenery and grandeur at every turn. I was here last summer and headed out to capture this around dusk on the last day. The summer days were much longer so this was probably around eight or nine at night. I remember being swarmed by mosquitoes as I setup for this frame and then made a dash back for the car. Now looking back and remembering this, I just want to go back. Perhaps I will this summer.
This is the tackle shop at Hart's Landing in Sarasota Florida. As long as I live I'll never get tired of taking photos from this area. It's one of those rare urban places where you can get a good photo no matter which way you turn. Something about us humans, we love to fish. Something about places where people fish, they seem to make for good photography. I have no idea why this is, or even what I'm talking about, but it seems to me we must have a strong connection to the water. Why else would we like to look at it so much? Before I start going off into space, I just want to wish you all a great day and hope that you get a chance to go by the water sometime soon. If not, this'll have to do for now. ;-)
