A few misc. recent shots

Zthomas

Just moved to central Fla. with my family a few months ago and we're spending every weekend exploring. Here's a few recent shots. In shooting and processing, I try to squeeze out all the color and drama I can while also not over-manipulating to the point things look unnatural. Also handhold everything and really try to avoid flash.

Still learning to fish around here (came from SoCal and Baja with different species, different habitats, different baits, different almost everything), but hope to be able to post some fish pics soon...

I like the second one and the last one. Also, time spent with the little guys is always good. Good for you.

I like the wide angle Cocoa and the one with the kid.

Very nice.

probably shouldn't touch the sea turtles...

That was a volunteer from sea turtle preservation. We just bumped into them walking the beach at dawn. They were counting eggs from a nest that had hatched the night before, and apparently that one was still trying to get out of the egg when they got there.
