Who is this diva?! 💜

Portraits of a dapper Brown Pelican who decided to give major ✨slay vibes✨ while resting on the rocks at the inlet. 😏 Always intriguing to see these feathered dinosaurs up close. 🤩

Reminder: flip your calendar today! After the long drawn-out 756 days of January, February is finally here! 🗓️

If you have the BF 2025 calendar, this image “Boundless” is your view for February. 🩵

I captured this image shortly after sunrise on a mostly cloudy morning. I found this scene along an ancient limestone outcropping here on Florida’s east coast, and I wanted to shoot it at sunrise as I suspected it would line up very nicely. The weather had been in a rut for weeks, and I had given it multiple attempts of waking up at 5am and hauling my gear out to this location, all to be skunked by fully clouded skies again and again. Some mornings the tide was so high the rocks were barely visible. Other mornings the wind was blowing so hard the ocean was a choppy mess. I was struggling to sync up with all the right conditions. On this particular morning, there was at least some interesting texture in the clouds and a few thin patches where sunlight was peeking through, and the rocks were exposed as the tide was still coming in, so I gave it another go. With a neutral density filter on my lens and my tripod steadied in the sand, I played with the movement of the waves, attempting to time my shutter click just right to get the soft blurred water effect around the rocks. All things considered, I ended up relatively pleased with this image. And while there were moments of letdown and frustration leading up to getting this shot, as in most things in life, the bitterness made it all the sweeter in the end. 😏

I hope February brings you some second, third, and fifteenth chances. And I hope you’re brave enough to try and try again. Nothing worth having or doing comes easy. 🫶

Recently crossed paths with a cute (albeit grumpy-looking) juvenile Gopher Tortoise at a local park. He/she was busy munching away on greenery and was relatively unphased by my presence, pausing only for a second as I knelt on the ground with my camera. I snapped a handful of photos and quietly observed from a distance. And before I moved on, I made sure to tell him/her how cute they were. 😍

The Gopher Tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus) is a native species to Florida and is protected by law. Although it doesn't happen often because human development encroaches on their habitat, it's always a delight to see these creatures in the wild.
