Trip to Pensacola, Florida

April 3-6, 2009;

Wife and I went to visit, nephew and niece, his wife, and her parents in Milton, Fl. That is in the panhandle of Florida. It is about a ten hour drive. The scenery between Winter Haven, and Milton, Florida is lovely, when not in the congested areas of housing or among the bumper to bumper traffic on the major highways.

The trip was quite nice as the traffic was not extremely heavy on the roads we traveled.

I was a high school student when they were made.

I am a photographic addict. I travel with a camera and take pictures of almost anything. If it moves, shoot it, if it doesn't move, shoot it, but with slower shutter speed. I take enough images to guarantee boring anyone who doesn't have the addiction also.

Digital has helped me save on the cost of film. I used to shoot rolls where others took a couple of pictures. So on this latest highway escaped, I took some over 2000. There will be some trashed. Not shooting for artistic purpose but for photo/video. That is like a time lapse of the trip. Also, some for Google Earth. I have many viewable by Google Earth.

I shoot water towers, actually towers of many descriptions. Buildings, construction or just some attracting item. Sometimes a sign. Sometimes a tree, an animal, traffic conditions, there are so many. I photograph things and places because they are lovely to view or because they are so unattractive they become interesting.

In more words, the pretty and the not so pretty are both attractive in their own way.
