I love taking pictures at sunset. It used to be that I was happy with just the beustiful color of the sky. As I matured as a photographer I began to feel the boredom of the empty sky.
Recently I have become fascinated with silhouettes against the setting sun. The forms add texture and movement to a static skyscape. This image was captured on the docks at Las Islas in Cancun Mexico.

This piece of driftwood on a deserted beach seems to be pointing to the rising sun. This was shot on the beach at Lagunamar in Cancun Mexico.

If you have followed this blog at all you probably know that I love pelicans. For every pelican picture I publish there are fifty I don’t. Their method of fishing makes them balletic when hitting the water. It is different each time. They are also large birds and beautiful in flight. This is a Mexican brown pelican in flight over the beach in Cancun.

In Flight
I photographed this pelican on Isla Mujeres on the dock near the turtle farm. All he wanted to do was sit on the post at the end of the pier. However, the kids would run out to the edge of the pier which made him nervous and he would jump into the little harbor and wait until they left. He would then skip along the water and fly back up to his post. I saw him do this a few times before I finally got a picture of him skipping on the water.

We survived our relocation to Pittsburgh by leaving for Mexico for two weeks after our move. I highly recommend this strategy. We coupled two weeks at the resort with spa treatments and totally revivified our minds and bodies. I am now ready for the new challenges of exploring our old home town and writing a sequel to DreamMap but not before writing Zombie Nights which is the true story of my two nights on location with Dawn of the Dead with over 50 behind the scenes photos. Until then, enjoy this Mexican sunrise on the beach on LagunaMar in the Mayan Riviera.

Lagunamars at sunrise
If you follow this blog you know that for some time we have been trying to sell our house and move back to Pittsburgh. Our tablets are done (DreamMap publishing in October) and it is time to come off the mountain. Of course moving is hard work so I haven’t been taking new pictures and have been thinking of how to keep the blog “alive” during this time of transition.
Moonlit waterfalls are beautiful wether they exist in nature or are created. The moon is from our back yard, the waterfall is part of Bushkill Falls about twenty miles away.

Although our new house is only two blocks from one of the largest parks in Pittsburgh (Frick Park) I will really miss the mountains in the autumn. One of the good things about Pittsburgh though is that besides having a wonderful park system the city is only a short drive to a wide variety of state parks. It will be fun exploring them in the autumn to find more scenes like this.

Although our new house is only two blocks from one of the largest parks in Pittsburgh (Frick Park) we won’t have quite the variety of wildlife we have in The Poconos. Oh sure there will be deer, rabbits and maybe even some fox but I don’t think they have black bears in Frick Park. It is always exciting to see bears in the wild and I will miss their occasional visits.

Autumn comes quickly in the mountains. As we watch the butterflies and hummingbirds swirl around the remaining blooms of summer we begin to realize too soon they will be gone. A reminder for us to get our act together as once again we prepare to flee in the face of winter.
