365/98 ~ New Toy ~

We went and picked up our "New Toy"...I followed Hubby back home.  I loved all the "red" in this photo...and his adorable happy little boy smile in the side mirror.

Now the only problem is we have to change our names to Ike and Joyce...Hmmmm....LOLOL...

365*95 ~ Water and Sky ~ Birthday Series and Easter Assignment

Mangroves grow along the edge of most waterways in Florida...I loved the reflection here and played a bit with softening and using B&W...

I didn't do anything to this photo, as I just loved the way it looked straight out of the camera...

As we enjoyed our meal (prepared for us on the Island)...we watched the sun go down and the moon rise...then we paddled back under the moonlight...

Spectacular! 

"Now after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to look at the grave.  And behold, a severe earthquake had occurred, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled away the stone and sat upon it."..."The angel said to the women, 'Do not be afraid; for I know that you are looking for Jesus who has been crucified.  He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said'."

365/94 ~ Colorful Kayaks ~ Birthday Series

The Kayaks were colorful in themselves, but even lovlier when reflected off the water...

Just playing around with editing...what do you think of this???

This looked really nice in color, with the sun setting and glowing agaist them, but I like it more in B&W...

I should have thought to take this shot about 10 minutes earlier when the sun would have caught the tops a bit more...oh well, live and learn!

365/93 ~ The Birds and The Bees ~ Birthday Series

Some of the things we saw on our Kayak stroll...

I wish I could tell you the name of this very pompous bird, but I'm not certain of it.  Look closely at his red eyes...very cool!

When we arrived on the Island, one woman was saying (quite loudly) that a certain tree was covered with bees (insinuating we should find another island I suspect)...I immediately crept up as close as I could get to take pictures of these "scary" creatures....:)  I have a good relationship with bees, LOL...

I got a nice series of this guy taking off...

This bird was doing some sunset fishing....so serenely...

365/92 ~ Serenity II ~ Birthday Series

I should have "played" with my other photo before I posted it, as I felt it was a bit washed out.  I like this one better...
