On this particular trip around South Florida, traveling up the East Coast of Florida to Cocoa Beach and ending up St. Pete. (the West Coast of Florida) I was having so much fun that I extended my stay for 2 more days.
You can expect sunsets like the ones below, without any tourists and without any noise. The very few people you see, disappear right after sunset.
A few days later I headed South towards Naples Florida and ended up in Shell Key, not too far from St. Pete Beach. It looked promising and I almost took a boat ride there. The boat rides costs $20.00 and they take you there and bring you back.
Before I committed to a boat, I decided to take my drone up in the air and see Shell Key for my self. After viewing it from the air, I decided to pass on the boat ride and keep heading South. I made it to Sarasota….
My relationship with New York is a romantic one. Like the one of a 12 year old kid and his obsession with the girl next door. I come to New York at least once a year to get away, to get recharged, to get inspired, and most importantly to recharge my creativity.
New York City is a magical place. Everything is happening so fast, and to keep up is nearly impossible. Some days I take it easy by going to get a slice of pizza somewhere, and somedays I can’t stop, I become one with the madness. One thing is for sure, no matter how many times I come to New York, I’m a bit sad to leave, but smile at the thought of coming back. If I can find an excuse to come back, count me in.
Here are a few of my favorite shots from my most recent trip in no particular order.
What you see here are some Aerial shots of The Gulfstream Park Racing and Casino. This is a cool spot to come watch horse racing. Its a popular hang out for my pops, and I often come with him to spend some son and dad time and kick back some cold ones :)
I grew up in Nevada so the Casino is not very impressive to me, but the track is really nice and the action is always good.

Burning Man 2015, what a weird crazy year just like the rest of them. I could go on and on and on ranting about Burning Man, but I think you rather look at the photos and try to figure out wtf happened. Here are some of my favorite photos from Burning Man 2015.
Just imagine being in Mars with 60,000 aliens for 7 days. Thats kind of what its like, but not quite… Scroll down to watch a quick vid of the temple burn… I’ll be adding more photos as I go through them, check back soon.
This is the last photo I took as we were leaving the burn. It was amazing getting to the hotel taking a long hot shower and sleeping in a real bed before driving back to Texas then jumping on a plane to Miami…
