Fishing or Catching?
The sun had just risen and had a nice effect on the fisherman with the morning ground fog.

As you walk through Key West you find interesting examples of exterior decorating. Since I took this photo the plane has been replaced with dinosaur looking things.

Night Airshow
At the night airshow a plane enters my field of view from the left, performs a loop while occasionally launching fireworks from its wingtips then exits my view to the right. All this while flying over fireworks being launched from the ground.

Auburn automobiles were produced from 1900 to 1937 which were fast, good-looking and expensive. However, after the 1929 Wall Street Crash, and the economic downturn that ensued, the vehicle business halted in 1937 and Auburn started to produce a line of kitchen cabinets and sinks, to keep the company afloat. wikipedia

Photogenic Las Vegas
Early morning I was walking from my car to join a group of photographers when I saw this bright red dress, umbrella and flip flopped lady buying a parking pass. In the bright sunlight on a deserted street I had to raise my camera and take this while I waited to buy my parking pass. I later found out she was one of the models that had been hired for us and in the bag were her sparkly red pumps. Las Vegas is always full of surprises.

Arizona Slot Canyon
The Navajo Sandstone is lit by the overhead sunlight which brings out the red, pink, orange and even purple colors. Page AZ is famous for its 26 mile Antelope Canyon.
Las Vegas Lines
Las Vegas is, if anything, is colorful. But I think the architectural detail really comes through nicely in black and white.
Bryce Canyon National Park
Bryce Canyon is made up of delicate and colorful pinnacles called hoodoos that are up to 200 feet high. A series of amphitheaters extends more than 20 miles north-to-south within the park. The largest is Bryce Amphitheater, which is 12 miles long, 3 miles wide and 800 feet deep. This photo was taken a few minutes after sunrise.
Ivins Utah
In Ivins Utah there is a development called Kayenta where color and height rules make the houses blend in with the surroundings. This red mountain is the areas backdrop while the deep wash cut the development in half.
Double Color
It didn't look like much at first but when I saw the clouds slide off to the right exposing some sunlit pinks and reds I grabbed my stuff and headed out to the shore to wait. So often the moving clouds combine with a rising sun and the dawn colors quickly get brighter. To capture this I left the camera shutter open for about 15 seconds as it was still quite dark out. This allows the light to accumulate on the camera sensor not only making the photo brighter and the colors deeper but it also makes the water look smoother which like a mirror doubles the effect.
Fair Foto Fun
While taking a night photo of a moving ride at the fair I simply zoom in or out just a little which creates something different.
Unfortunate
I can always find him along the waterfront on my walks into town. It is one thing to quickly glance but to take a photo then really look makes me appreciate what I have..
