My love of Westerns drew me to this capture. The earthy tones contrasted well with the bright blues. [Arizona-Utah State Border, Navajo Nation].

If it wasn't for the occasional passing cloud, I would have thought the view was a giant painted canvas. [Grand Canyon, Arizona].

The dark swirls combined with the light creeping in from above made me think of ice cream. [Lower Antelope Canyon, Arizona].

I like how the water diluted the city lights. [Brickell, Miami].

The stillness and low clouds caught the humidity here. [Brickell, Miami].

The sunset combined with the reds captured the anticipation of the city. [Brickell, Miami].

Taken on one of my sunset walks. I looked into the water and saw a manatee looking at me with soft eyes. [Miami, FL].

I like my quiet beach days now and again. I waited for the wave to break to add dimension the inevitable rain clouds. [Sarasota, FL].

Ernest Hemingway's typewriter. Taking this made me want to fish more. [Key West, FL].

The room where Hemingway wrote. The simplicity in the color tones mirrored his writing style. [Key West, FL].

The pastel colors combined with the intricate architecture caught my eye. Especially for a Walgreens. [Key West, FL].

"Call me Ishmael." [Vizcaya, Miami, FL]

The earthy tones evoked a sense of being rooted and natural. [Key West, FL].

Snapping this while drinking coffee reminded me of a Harry Potter Christmas. [Simpsonville, SC].

The serenity of the lake combined with the contrasting Pink Hibiscus (my favorite flower) encapsulated the Florida aura.

Ah, the fall colors. This was taken in October with Halloween nearing the bend. Pumpkin Spice, anyone? [Table Rock, SC].

The pointed angles of the cabins blended with the rolling hills evoked stillness and calm. It was quiet. [Boone, NC].

Inside the cabin. After taking this I went out, sipped coffee, and reflected on the journey. [Boone, NC].

Epiphytes are the definition of teamwork. The reddish/brown tips were reaching out with curiosity. [Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, Sarasota, FL].

The tangled and erratic green reminded me of the mind. Racing thoughts. [Myakka, FL].
