Hi everyone, this thread is to display some of the photography that I do, a little bit of my old art work and if any wish to contribute to it's visual appeal please do.
The first was previously posted at the vibe but is a nice beginning. Sunrise over the Indian River Lagoon

I was going through photos and I found it.....some of those areas are so wide open....Miles of swamp and grass sometimes broken with a cabbage palm or two. The alligators get very large out there... 15 to 20 footers are not uncommon. The St Johns River is the only river to flow north in the lower fortyeight states. There used to be huge stands of cypress with some of the trees having a huge girth. Over a hundred years ago the lumber companies moved through chopping them all down. You can still find isolated stands or trees that were missed by them...but not many. Most cypress trees are young. They actually had boom towns spring up to support the lumber business.....they are all gone now.
