Enjoying the early Summer !

It has been a few days over a month since our last posting. Now, we are settled for the Summer in Island Park, have seen the family several times, and have been out and about doing our things.

May 26, 27 & 28 John went to the annual Jones Beach Air Show. Here with a sample of the photos he captured.

Thursday June 8th Connie and John joined a group from Manhattan's B&H Camera on an organized photo shoot to the Bronx Zoo.

Once again, only sample of the photos taken.  Fun stuff but a long day on our feet.

We are still saying, everyday is a new day in Paradise !

Last year was the worst drought in 80 years for South Florida and it was somewhat  noticiable is the absence of certain plants and wildlife.  This year the beauty of nature is back with abundance. Here are examples.

The Preserve at PGA National, Palm Beach Gardens.

With its bountiful and beautiful wildlife !

A Glossy Ibis !

A Whistling Black Bellied Duck!

A Common Button Bush!

A young Green Heron!

A Pileated Woodpecker!

A Limpkin !

Two very young Blue Heron !

         A Dragon Fly !

A Spoon Bill !

A young, 3 month old,  Sand Hill Crane !

A Lily !

A juvenile Night Heron !

A Great Blue Heron in flight !

With these almost daily sights how could this not be paradise ?

Our Worth Avenue Photo Shoot!

Our Delray Beach "fine art photography" school conducted a "photo shoot" early yesterday on Worth Avenue, Palm Beach. A large amount of photographers took part and their skills, expertise and know how have all become evident on the school's Meet Up web sit.

Here is a small sample of our work. Typical photos were from window displays of the Worth Avenue stores and shops, patio gardens, ally ways, local architecture, statues, art galleries, etc.  Really, a great variety of photo opportunities!

Hope you enjoy seeing this work as much as we enjoy doing it.
