Looking for Inspiration? It’s everywhere in nature…even in storms…
One of the most amazing things that happens to photographers is that expected moment when cloudy skies burst open up with shades of beautiful color in hues of the rainbow and more! This was one of those moments, I was inspired and I grabbed the beauty of it!

Sunrise Whirlwind
How beauiful are the sunrise and sunsets in the skies. Wherever you are, North, South, East or West they mesmerize us with their beauty that changes like a whirlwind from sunrise to sunset. I am fixated on them as a favorite subject for photography and art. There is no need to travel to great or faraway places my friends just look to the skies and capture them. _ jacyjoypals
Amelia Island – Come Walk With Me
Amelia Island – Come Walk With Me 2:
I love to walk…beach, mountains, hills, woods and anywhere where I am surrounded by nature or beautiful architecture with my camera gear in tow ready to capture the beauty of it. I especially love to walk the beach at sunrise and sunset. Amelia Island is the perfect place for nature walkers (and photographers, of course) for feasts of delights for the eyes and soul. From the majestic ocean and Intracoastal Waterway views to the glorious sunrise-sunsets, boardwalk waterways and marshes, to the Sunken Forest, Aury Island, Drummond Point Park and Walker’s Landing and more — it’s a little heavenly bit of Eden on earth.
On this year’s Amelia Island photo tour, we spent days walking the trails throughout the island winding through Spanish moss-draped live oaks and palmettos which opened to gorgeous ocean and marsh views. A gear-laden photog can exhaust themselves very quickly so with Canon5dMII and tripod in tow, I left our gear [that’s it right there sitting on the sand in the middle of the photo] to follow the walk to the open marshes to view its plethora of waterfowl, wildlife, flora and after shooting, we returned and I was glad to see the gators, crocks or a photog wannabe had not absconded with our gear!
And finally, the anticipation of the “Sunken Forest” that trails down, then winding up to spectacular views of the ocean. My new favorite private spot on the island. It doesn’t get better than this — sunrise in all its glory!
There’s more to come…watch for new postings. Until then, enjoy the views and if you want a truly enjoyable photography adventure, visit Amelia Island.
