- Guess who we ran into? May 22, 2021
Good old Roger!
Our friend of 22 years from Dallas!! The guy with whom I trekked thru the Gobi desert! We were in Marco Island and he was visiting clients in Fort Myers…
A dinner together had to happen. And of course, plan for the next crazy trip!!
- Early morning Gulf waters May 23, 2021
This is facing west – the sun is behind us.
- Contrasts in blue May 23, 2021
The difference in the blue colors is mostly an effect of the shadow cast by a big cloud that suddenly showed up
- Egret May 23, 2021
I think this is a Snowy Egret
- Another shot of the Gulf May 23, 2021
- Sailing away… May 23, 2021
I had to zoom in hard with my 300mm lens to see if the sailor couple were Indians. In case you did not get the reference – that is exactly how the Indian flag looks – green-white-red and blue in between!
What colors today on the beach!
- A White Ibis on Marco Island beach May 23, 2021

- Out in the boat May 24, 2021

- Mangrove forests in The Ten Thousand Islands May 24, 2021
- Dome Home May 24, 2021
Barely a couple of decades back, this was a vacation home in an island. Now erosion has completely moved the sand out from under it. Two domes are in the water and four are still sticking out. I asked Captain Austin how long he things these domes will last. He did not give it more than two years or one more storm!!
- Fresh sand bars! May 24, 2021
While erosion has taken away sand from one side – e.g. from the Dome Home area, it has deposited them elsewhere making fresh new sand bars.
The water colors were outstanding!
