Palm trio

With days like today, memories like these just help to get through the drudge. Create a postcard from this photograph

The beach

Greenerie framing the beachhouse.  Don't know what it is about the greenerie in Miami...I seem to allow to it take up a huge part of my frame in the last two shots (maybe because here at the moment, it's snow and lack of green anything that is a pushing factor).

Jack hammering the palm tree

Hard at work.

The Regent will be my big 300!

I thought the colors were amazing.  Lots of blues and greens and bluegreens with a touch of light grey.  Contrast that with a bit of green here and there and voilà -  The Regent, Ocean drive Miami gracing the 300th photograph posted on my blog!

Essex house

These soft non-saturated pastels are the trademark of Miami's South Beach district.  Just adjusting the photograph was almost a nightmare for me...always looking to boost saturation a bit, it couldn't be done here, not naturally anyway.  Now that I look at it, I don't even mind anymore, it's the true nature of the light.  Sunwash makes me feel warm.
