Claudia at Daytona Beach

The water was too rough to go into, but it was still nice to get out and take a walk in the sun along the beach.

Ponce Inlet Lighthouse

A beautiful lighthouse along the Daytona Beach area, that unfortunately is not in the most photogenic location. But the striking red color, and tall stature still make it an imposing sight.

Daytona Beach Sunrise

The colors of the sky as captured by a long exposure dramatically indicate the coming of a new day to Daytona Beach, right before the sun comes into view.

Daytona Beach Pier Ocean View

The late day view from a different Daytona Beach pier looking out to sea captures the late day light on the clouds.

One Man's Vision

The fountain at the entrance to the Kennedy Space Center pays homage to the man who essentially began the US space program, and started our nation on the path to the moon.

Magnificent Machinery

A black and white view of some of the inter-stage rocket engines on the mighty Saturn V rocket, turned sideways in this composition for dramatic effect. The image makes it clear the tremendous amount of complexity required of all of the hardware used to propel mankind to the moon, and the remarkable feat of engineering involved to ensure it all worked properly.
