I live on the West coast of Florida so the best i could normally do is all sunsets, BUT next week I am on vacation and will be spending three glorious nights in Daytona Beach at a fabulous resort FREE. My boss decided to pay and I decided to enjoy his generousity. I will post the good shots when i get back

Sunset in Detroit...
 

Not the best pic ever, but I thought I'd throw one out there...

another...
 

here's another quick one. This is the sunset from above the cloudline...

The Everglades are on fire, again, and the smoke was drifting to the west, last nite, so I thought it might make for an interesting sunset photo. It really didn't (man, was I too late for an awesome sunrise this morning, tho). Soot was falling out of the sky last nite.

Looking out from Fort Myers Beach with Sanibel Island in the background.

A pelican sharing the sunset with me last nite.

Two fisherman last nite.

Every nite at sunset, like clockwork, the Key West Ferry returns to Fort Myers Beach.

I took this picture one morning this spring.

Hex-

That's a sweet shot...

thank you. Im just getting into photography. That was taken with a Fujifilm Finepix A303. Its a descent started digital cam except for the stupid dead pixel i just discovered on it.. .grr

I want to get a nice SLR to play with.. but they are way out of my price range right now.

These are really nice pics, I should get out of bed earlier..... ;-)

Sunrise this morning on the Glen Cove canal in Cape Coral.

A full view of the same canal this morning.

Heres a few from Virginia Beach

It appears like you were pretty high up off the ground from the size of the people at the bottom of the first photo.

Had a fair sunset, tonite.

One more of a closer view.

Heres a few I took at South Padre Island. I'll go ahead and just put them here.

Great photos. Still hard for me to believe it is the same Gulf of Mexico, tho. ;-)

Reflection.

Matlacha, tonite.

Red sky at nite, sailor's delight..

Storm moving into Matlacha.

Tonite was a pretty boring sunset...

Took a couple of photos of some shrimpers...

Last one...

Great photos. A person e-mailed me, once, and asked if the reason why I had such colorful sunsets and sunrises was because of pollution. ;-)

I'm thrilled to see you have the same 'pollution' that we have down here in southwest Florida.

Great photos! :cool:

heres a sort of sunrise photo

a little something different for this thread

[img]http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0SwAAANUVgx*L7t2xyEc7QEDXy4w1rqdxwkDjxNo!EXv!XIfHmbRlauFKNkDnmr8Rv0ydRG05FOOyWytlOoYzRWWprLRgSJGwF*DFWOsoa5oFHW4u!!BinA/P1010219.jpg?dc=4675483865356683265[/img]

There are some amazing pictures in this thread, by the way. I really should start browsing this section more often.

This is the only sunrise picture I think I've ever taken, mainly because I'm not usually up or forget about it when I am. And its not technically sunrise, its actually an hour or so after it (we were all waiting on it) but this was the first it peeked over the clouds.

Its very amatuerish, being that it was shot just on an impulse and with a cheap $10-drug store-type camera, not knowing jack about photography, and I could've scanned it in a little better as well. But I don't really care that much if its considered a good shot or not, as the sentimental factors surrounding it are why I keep onto to. Long story.

Hurricane Ivan is supposed to hit here (who really knows) in a couple more days and Fort Myers Beach is like a ghost town (part of the reason is it is still pretty screwed up from dealing with Hurricanes Charley and Frances, also).

Anyway, no one was on the beach, tonite. I pretty much had the place to myself. Was rather amazing. :cool:

There were some really nice colors out, tonite, and hardly anyone else to see them.

The colors that were out were just amazing. :cool:

Like I said, there wasn't hardly anyone around to share the sunset with, tonite.

There was a small storm over Sanibel Island.

A perfectly good beach with a perfectly good volleyball net and no one around to play.

OMG... look, there is someone on the beach with me... :cool:
