Pelican, Oh Pelican, eats more than his belly can...

Daytona Beach, FL.
While on a pier waiting for free handouts, this Pelican decided to pose for me turning just right for a close up head shot..Although majestic while in flight, they are really quite ugly up close. With wing spans over 7 feet long, the Pelican is fun to watch as they tuck their wings together and nose dive out of the sky for fish. Plunging into the water to gather its catch, the Pelican then kicks his head back and swallows the fish whole..

Penn Reel

Bahama Islands
The sunrise seemed to cast just the right light on the reel. Despite the combination of seas and boat speed, the photograph turned out suprisingly crisp.

17th Century Cemetery

Savannah, GA.
The following three photographs were taken at a 17'th and 18'th century cemetery in Savannah, GA. The cemetery contains many Civil War soldiers and numerous dignitaries that helped form one of the South's largest shipping ports. The picture's here are of broken headstones that have been bolted to the exterior brick wall that surrounds the cemetery. This continues around the entire cemetery exterior. You can see the various shapes and sizes and some of these are only the top section of a headstone. With that in mind, as you look across the cemetery grounds you can see countless headstones that are fractions of what they used to be. In some instances, the stones were broken right at the ground and only a sliver of marble or granite remains at the grave site. I specifically like the texture and color these stones create against the well aged brick wall

After Lunch

After lunch

Student Union, Madison Wisconsin...Those of you that take many photographs have probably come across a scene or setting that you just knew was a great photograph, but were not exactly sure how to compose it or what about it would make a great photograph. Well, that has been my predicament on several occasions at the Student Union in Madison WI. Normally covered with students, professors, visitors and a lunch crowd, I have come across this setting on several occasions early in the morning. I am certain I have not captured the best image that could be taken. I am constantly battling all the shapes, the colors, the uniformity yet also the appearance of disarray. Close shot, distant shot,.....??? The preceding photo shows this from a different angle.
