Tampa Skyline (click on image for larger view)

Tampa Bay skyline is always a beautiful view, even when there is a thick haze like this one.

Tampa Skyline

We are driving along the Bay Shore Blvd., along the road is a sidewalk where you ride or walk until you drop.  A very peaceful view and walk, but not representative of Tampa.

This is a shot of downtown Tampa with the bridge crossing over to Davis Island.  Every so often, there are small enclaves for the walker or rider to pull off and set a spell to enjoy the view.

Chestnut Park

About noon each day the alligators move up on to the shoreline at Chestnut Park.  I always make about two or three visits to the park every week unless out of town.  There is always something new to see and to photograph.

A wide angle shot of Tampa Bay Skyline, again with a thick haze permeating the whole area.

Tampa Downtown

I don't normally come to Tampa very often, better put, I seldom come to Tampa.  But I had been promising myself that I would shoot the skyline.  So after so many years I decided to shoot the skyline.  Being from Pinellas County, across the bay living with all the retirees, one has a real aversion to the hyper activity of Tampa.

Chestnut Park

Just happen to see this guy crossing the lake, and caught the reflections in the water.  Everyday the alligators head to their spots on the shoreline to catch a little sun.

Waiting for me to leave so he can crawl up onto the shoreline at Chestnut Park.  I like the reflections in the water with just his eyes sticking above the water line.
