Postcards from the Sunshine State

Interesting thing about Florida- it is vibrant, loud, and as tacky as you'd ever want in places, but ashen gray in others. Mandy and I spent spring break learning to scuba and in between trying to control my body underwater while wearing heavy flippers, I took these photos of the most notably lovely things. Except Mandy took the photos of me, of course. Incidentally, the air there this time of year feels like a fresh cupcake tastes. I was happy just to sit and feel it in the mornings. It was the week I did almost nothing.

Bambi's electric hair-




One of two Bingo parlors in town.




Little does the runaway know he is heading right for the gator swamp...





My favorite photo- I love the muted gold and blue.





I shot this one on Program mode, which is a step above the green box on your camera dial. I didn't have time to set a Manual exposure. Don't tell anyone.






Here the wind was fiercely blowing the orange branches into a circular dance, and ants were not so gently telling me to be on my way back home.
