Blue Sunrise.. .

we stayed at a lovely little place this past weekend for a night at "manasota beach club" right on the water. the morning i woke up, it was before sunrise -believe it or not. i was able to photograph some amazing shots of the surrounding vegetation from the porch outside our room. the blue hues that were swirling around as my backdrop were mesmerizing. you can barely see where the water meets the sky. click on any of the photos to enlarge them and get a closer look at the natural beauty i was lucky enough to capture before i leave florida.

the very last one, if you scroll down, will show you papa bear in his kayak in the bottom right corner of the photo. i will post more photos of the day with the family. we really had a good time out there, just enjoying mother nature's glorious playground.
