North Miami Beach at Sunset
This is another Miami Beach photo. It is one of the earliest ones I took with my newest camera. It is a Fujifilm and it was on special when I got it. I analyzed all the features it offered for the price. I could show you the camera, but I cannot take a photo of it. If I used another camera, it would have pretty low resolutions. This brings me back to this photo. It was taken in the docks leading to North Miami. This is the place the rich people like to park their boats. From time to time,...
Still Waters in Miami Beach
This is quite the cool beach scene. The beach was really windy, and yet the water was super still. It was the perfect conditions for kite surfing. It was also dandy for photography. The sky was really blue. It is rare for such conditions to come together. I am drawing a bit of a blank. I cannot focus on this actual photography. Today, some folks from back in Cuba visited to talk about the old days. Most of their conversations were for mother. Anyhow, the lady expected me to remember things from like 20 years ago. I do remember because...
Fata Morgana in Miami Beach
For those that do not know, Fata Morgana is a type of mirage. They do not appear very often. I was lucky to have taken photo of it. This type of mirage tends to distort the original, till one no longer recognizes it. They usually appear on the horizon. They are usually seen in the Polar Regions. It is fun to have been it in Florida. I guess stranger things have happened before. Perhaps, it is just a regular mirage. I think it was the latter, because the air was slightly cooler that day. Still, there was warm air from...
July in Miami Beach
Yesterday, I was in a children's birthdate party. It was the first birthdate of the great granddaughter of one of mom's friends. I went with my family to the party in a banquet hall, even though it was pouring. We were one of the firsts to arrive in spite of the fact that we were half an hour late. The party was rather pleasant, decent food and good company. It was pouring too much, so I did not bring my big camera. Also, they had an official photographer, so I did not want to crowd the place. The interesting thing...
Miami Beach on a Good Day
It has been quite a long time since Miami Beach was this crowded. Lately, it has been rather empty because of the poison algae. People do end up there, but they are still paranoid about it. All along the coast of Florida some fishes and whales have been showing up dead. The water also has a lot of seaweed. Well, I at least have photos. The past is always visible through nostalgia goggles. You can see the time of the photo was taken by the clock. It is in that hotel in the background. Well, I am just drawing a...
