I go out every day with a great attitude, but sometimes mother earth does not want to cooperate, and that is ok. Thats one of the things I love about landscape photography, you can’t control the light or the elements and you really never know what you are going to get.
This particular mooring was extremely dull, there were no clouds and nothing really to get your attention. This is the part where you really have to think and really have to get creative. I sat there and thought about how I could create a good composition, so I observed the elements and what was in front of me, shortly I realized that I could get the earths energy with the sun and showdown, a touch of life with the birds, and a peaceful feeling by not having any clouds. Once I figured this out I walked away with a great photo.
Photography really is this deep and complex, its not just showing up and snapping a shot, even though sometimes we wish it was.

I really love this 3 words, in fact this is exactly what I live by. First you have to desire something, you have to want it so bad where all you do is obsess over it. It will take a very long time to get it, but if you chase it long enough with all your heart you will eventually obtain it. After that you can cherish the fruits of your labor. Just don’t quit. I truly live by this 3 words. Feel free to pass it around and speed the love.
About the photo, I shot it during a very colorful sunrise in Miami Beach….

This Halloween looks so much different then any other year for me. My baby boy passed away early this year and its going to be weird without him, that being said, it is going to be an amazing one and one to remember. This is what Halloween looks like on the beaches of Miami.
This was truly an epic sunrise, and even though I lost both of my boys, I know they are still with me everywhere I go. Thats what I think about when I’m out and about shooting this epic scenery.

There is nothing better then en epic sunrise. I was ready to go, I have been shooting the sunrise every morning for about 3 weeks in a row now, its nice but I had not seen an epic one for a while. Then this happened. OMG I had the fastest grin on my face, it was so good. I love it when everything comes together just right, makes me very lucky to have witnessed this and now I can share it with you guys.

Here is a photo I shot in the morning of Hurricane Mathew, I showed up at 5am and waited until sunrise, what you see was right after sun had came up, not much of a sunrise, but the beach was really calm, empty and the sand was perfectly comed by the wind.
Lucky for us the Hurricane missed us and everything went back to reality rather quickly.
