Heron

We went for a walk this evening in and around Rosemary Beach, and not only was the shelling excellent, there was a beautiful heron wading in the Gulf.

I also tried to take a nice photo of this little Old Florida concrete block beach bungalow to honor its memory before it gets torn down and replaced with another beachside megamansion. There are only a few of these gems left in Inlet Beach!

Photos taken with my Kodak PIXPRO FZ55.

In Seaside there is a gorgeous lavender house on 30A with a fun little detail…

A statue of a sea captain wearing a yellow raincoat, looking out towards the water. 

The first two photos I took today with my Kodak PIXPRO FZ55. The third one I took with my iPhone last year.

Orange A-Frame

When I first laid eyes on this beautiful orange A-Frame beach house a few years ago with the full moon rising behind it, it was love at first sight. 

As the months went by, I kind of turned into half a stalker, swinging by whenever I was in the area just to take a quick look. This next photo is available on Pixels.

Here is my most recent photo taken earlier this month with my Kodak PIXPRO FZ55, no filter.

The old hand-painted VRBO sign they used to have on the left has been replaced by something more professional-looking.

I’ve checked out the interior photos on their listing and it’s very fun. There are multiple balconies and a nice back deck. No pool, but you’re literally steps from the gulf. Might have to book a staycation!

Moody Views

Freezing a perfect moment in a photograph feels magical. The way sunshine hits a tree atop a building, an airplane in just the right spot, neatly manicured hedges behind a fancy fence, a peach colored building against a gray Chicago sky, a strangely dignified looking parking garage, and the Sears Tower from the roof of Whole Foods Lincoln Park.

Life is fleeting, but full of wonders if you stop to look.

Postcards from 30A

From a beachside rainbow to the Alys Beach dragon sculpture and regional bumper stickers, this collection of snapshots resembles postcards one could imagine seeing in a gift shop. Greetings from the Florida Panhandle!
