A Golden Opportunity


A photographer only gets about 20 minutes of terrific natural light conditions a day, at sun up and sun down. These are the times when an entire ocean can be covered in a sheet of gold, or when light beams and sun rays squeeze through clouds. These are the times when a shadow tells its story.




Here in Pine Island we don't need to go too far for a beautiful view, it is enough just to step outside.



I was determined to drive to the west side of the island and capture a beautiful sunset. On our way back from a lecture by Dr. William Marquardt our group stopped at a public access dock. The pictures that follow were all taken at this location.







I am sorry about the tilted picture. The sun with the birds caught me by surprise.


Our winter study group enjoying the view.


Taken with the iPhone, the sun reflected off the wide lens perfectly for a nice picture.
