I've been terribly neglectful about sifting through all the pictures I've taken in the last few months. Here are some from a daytrip to Marco Island. A truly beautiful little place. But true to my nature, what I found most fascinating was a delapidated old hotel that was de-roofed by a hurricane...not sure which one.

Coming over the bridge:

The hotel; I debated doing these in b/w but decided against it:

Outside a local bar where, apparently, it is safe to park your golf cart outside as long as you have a mean ass parrot to look after it - and I mean mean, mean ass parrot - feather-assed little bastard:

Inside the little bar...can't remember the name:

Nothing spectacular, but I'm glad I actually did something. sheesh...

These are beautiful shots. I think that first hotel shot, of the door, is very good in color rather than if it were in b/w because of the green door and floor. Very nice!

Nothing spectacular? Nonsense, 3-6 were my favorites. Nice textures. Would be nice to see them in black and white.

Thank you!

Manic, maybe I'll rework a few of those in black and white and post them later.
