Here is the very first shot from yesterday during that epic sunset at the Lake Worth Lagoon. When I start a photo shoot with something like this, I get goose bump knowing it’s going to be a very good evening! It’s days like these that make up for all the other bad days.
I’m going to start my nine post marathon today with a bang. This was shot yesterday during sunset at Lake Worth Lagoon on Singer Island. I had my eye on this lone mangrove tree for awhile. I finally decided this week to camp this area until I got that shot and yesterday I finally got it.
My third attempt this week for a sunset at Lake Worth Lagoon, and you know what they say… “third times a charm.” Well in this case it was true. I’m working backwards through this series. This was shot 30 minutes after sunset so you can imagine what the others will look like. Let’s just say, I finally got the mangrove shot I wanted from this place, and then some.
This evening I went out to Singer Island and walked across the Lake Worth Lagoon to Munyon Island. I was hoping to get a good sunset but that didn’t happen. It was looking pretty good until it disappeared behind some dense clouds. At least I managed to snap this self portrait before the sun vanished.
This shot was from the day I got waist deep in water. See my new profile image. The funny part is I used a set of images that was taken later in the evening where I shot from dry land. This is 4 exposure panoramic, stitched in Photoshop, tone mapped in Photomatix and processed in Lightroom.
Here’s an up close shot of the Royal Park Bridge during sunset. This is the same bridge with the pink lights for Breast Cancer Awareness. The county even put lights on the tower which don’t come on often. I think the tower works get annoyed by them lol.
More pink lights from the Royal Park Bridge in West Palm Beach except this time I have pink flowers too. These pink lights were placed on this bridge to promote Cancer Awareness. The flowers however were coincidental.
I won’t take any credit for this shot. I’ve seen many photographer’s with this same angle of the West Palm Beach Skyline from Palm Beach Island with this Banyan Tree in the foreground. I figure I give it a go myself and put my own flare to it.
Yesterday I went to go shoot the Royal Park Bridge in West Palm Beach with a friend. I stopped by the Flager Museum to see the sunset and got this HDR shot which I turned into more of a painterly look using Topaz Simplify.
