Everglades Surprise

Recently while traveling along Alligator Alley my daughter and I stopped at a rest stop so I could take pictures of the sunset. As we looked out over the everglades...we noticed this alligator cruising along the canal. Needless to say I missed the sunset, but when looking back on all the gator shots I was pleasantly surprised by this one. The water is really brown and murky and was in all the other pictures, but I guess the angle of the light on the water was just right for this one and gave it this beautiful blue.
