Rose Garden in Central Park

While exploring Central Park in Schenectady we stumbled on their beautiful rose garden. It's row after row of every kind of rose you could think of . There were benches surrounding the garden to allow visitors to sit and reflect. Further into the garden was a small waterfall. The garden sits at the edge of the park, where it meets a quaint neighborhood. These were two of my favorites from the hundreds of blooms.

Central Park Waterfall and Ducks

There's an awesome park in Schenectady, New York...ironically called Central Park. We visited on our last trip and in the center is a pond with a waterfall and ducks. The weather was beautiful and it was an incredibly peaceful day.

Over the Florida Sky

These were taken from the plane a couple months ago while we were flying back to Miami from New York. I found it interesting how the clouds formed over the land and it was so clear over the ocean (top photo). Then as we got closer to South Florida we were actually able to see boats traveling on the ocean...the streak in the center is the wake they left behind. Dig the shadow of the clouds on the waters surface...cool :o)

Anyway...to the Skywatch folks...here's another set of pics of the sky from above it...enjoy :o)

Ft Myers Sunrise

Haven't posted in ages but I have been taking pictures here and there during my down time. Spent last weekend in Ft Myers. We headed over to the Sanibel lighthouse to watch the sun come up on Friday morning...I took alot of pics that I'll post over time. I really liked this one. Love the contrast between the land and sky...and that one lone star hanging in the sky. It was a great morning.

Rainy Night Reflections

This weekend we got alot of rain as a tropical wave passed over us. I was out on the roads Friday night and ask I waited at the light to get off the highway, I thought the reflections looked so cool against the shiny black of the pavement...so I grabbed my camera and caught this before the honking started for me to get moving :o)

Everglades Rainbow

I caught this rainbow one day while traveling across the Everglades. Amazing...the many times I drive that path this is the only time I've ever seen a rainbow there.

Coconut Palm

We were down in The Keys yesterday and I was roming around and decided to take some pics of a coconut palm. They're a kind of cool tree, sturdy, colorful and as they grow they develop this fiberous material around the trunk...looks cool :o)
