This was one of my early shift days at work, but I had to stop and check my garden to make sure everything was fine. I looked out at the lake and saw the most incredible colors, and it wasn’t until I got the full unobstructed view that this particular shot would be one of my favorites of all time. I also love that in the middle portion of the picture to the far left you can see a house with the lights just coming on to seize a brand new day.
Sky Vapors
“Sky Vapors” has its origins one Friday dawn as I was stepping out on the back porch to have my coffee before my Uber arrived to take me to work. There was a peculiar light reflecting on the lake behind the house, and as I came outside I realized it was the leftover sky vapors from the SpaceX Falcon 9 launch that had occurred just a few minutes ago.
Moonrise in Tampa
“Moonrise” was taken from the back porch of my new home two days after I had moved in. The morning sunrise views are spectacular, but watching the moon rise over the lake at night was something else entirely - otherworldly, for lack of a better word.
