My recent trip to Key West Florida during the first week of March was my first ever trip to this area of Florida.  To be honest, I am not a big fan of Florida but the rest of my family is, and truth be told I was looking forward to some warm weather.  The long slow grind that is winter in the Northeast and New England was starting to take its toll.  I  had had my fill photographing white, grey and brown, I am ready to...

Unlike previous weeks this winter we were treating to a week of traditional winter weather on Long Island.  Mid-week featured a blizzard and 15 inches of heavy snow.  I decided one evening to take my Fujifilm X100t rangefinder camera to a local beach.  My goal was to find a combination of snow, sand, ocean, fences, ice, leading lines all basking in afternoon light.  Finding everything I wanted was a little more difficult than I organically expected.  The photo below is an example...
