backyard stars.

My friends Tony and Liz own a house in Vero Beach, FL, which is where all of our friends (including me) stayed for our spring break reunion last week. There was one night in particular, after we'd had a bonfire and most everyone had gone inside to go to bed, that I just couldn't resist hanging out in the backyard and stargazing because the sky was just so clear. Of course, for me, stargazing entails also taking photos…so a few hundred mosquito bites later, I finally dragged myself inside, satisfied that I'd gotten at least one or two usable shots despite not having a tripod.

splish splash.

This photo was taken with my point and shoot in Florida using it's awesome fantastic underwater casing.  This was one of the few really good ones I got.  Getting decent photos while being pummeled by waves is harder than you'd think.

I took this photo at night in Vero Beach.  The moon was almost, if not completely full that night, so it provided the perfect lighting for me.  The people standing at the shore are some of the friends I was there with.
