Miami Beach Gay Pride Weekend

There is something always happening is Miami Beach, and this past weekend was no different celebrating Miami Beach Gay Pride. The streets were packed and the festivities were in full effect.

This is a really cool event, there is a parade and people dress up for the occasion. From drag queens to people wearing almost nothing it makes it for a fun event specially if you have a camera in hand.

My good friend had access to a roof top and thats where I spend most of my time, shooting down at the madness. I was also lucky enough to have access to the stage where some cool shows were happening. If you are ever in this side of the world during pride weekend you have to come check it out.

Here are some of the photos from the event.

Miami Beach Sunrise at the Coolest Lifeguard Tower

Miami Beach Sunrise

4 am I open my eyes, I look at the clock and realize I am not going back to bed. I turn on the tv and its forensic files, I look at the clock and its 5:30 am. At this point I’m thinking about the ocean and an amazing sunrise but I’m glued to my bed, next thing you know I get this image in my head. I look at the clock ant its 6:15am. I jump out of bed throw on some shorts grab my camera and go to the beach. The sky was perfect.

The first image is what I had in my head while laying in my bed, but when I got there and I started walking around I realized there was lots more potential and more awesome angles to be had.

The clouds were moving and the colors were saturated and alive. Next thing you know people started coming from all directions.

Once I took all my photos and took all this in I picked up my bike form the sand and started walking away, then I turned my head and had to pull out my camera for one last shot…
