(our cable provider had technical issues for about 7 hours this evening, hence this late post and my inability to visit anyone)
No, I don't have my days mixed up - I know it's not Sunday, and I'm not posting a Sunset Sunday shot. Since this evening was going to be our last in Florida for a number of weeks, I wanted to capture one last glorious sunset before we left. So the 3 of us drove down to what's become a favourite spot for us. My wife, not wanting to witness my 'contortions' (as she calls them) as I position myself at various angles and postures to get my shots, went and found a place to sit on the beach. Sasha and I found some vantage points where I got some shots.
The vehicle is packed and we're ready to head out early tomorrow on our 2,500 km/1,500 mi trip back to the frigid region, where snow and ice and cold prevail.
Coincidentally the 2 shots I'm posting (I couldn't just post 1) were taken when I rejoined my wife on a picnic table by the beach. Oh, and I didn't need any contortions to get these.
Note: I'm not sure I'll be able to make any photos during the next day or two, or if I'm able, whether I'll get the chance to post them. If all goes well, I'll be back Monday for sure, maybe Sunday. late. Have a great weekend !

Rick these are so beautiful, stunningly beautiful! I love the colors, so soothing.
Have a safe drive home, careful when you hit those slippery roads, they're treacherous... but you know that all ready. Take care, have a fantastic weekend and we'll see you next week.
beautiful photos.
bet you wish you could capture some of that warmth in a jar and take it with you.
thoughts are with you as you travel....be safe.

Hard to leave what looks like a sunset in paradise to head for points cold. I don't envy you that drive! Safe journeys and an open road for and aft.
I started grade one in Florida.
Haha! Contortions:)))
Well...regardless of how you pose while capturing your scenes...they're beautiful. Nothing like a spectacular sunset to send you home....(Ahhh...you SURE you want to go home?)
Drive safe!!

Beautiful photos!
I know what you mean... it is so nice to be by the ocean! Beautiful sunset, by the way. SAFE travels to you & your wife & Sasha! I have driven close to 4 thousand miles since I left NM, and am now back... & enjoying the melting snow. :)
Such great photographs that look so inviting. Do be careful on your journey.
The warmth looks really appealing,but there is just something wrong with palm trees and Christmas.---Looks like a beautiful place to be.
