My Favorite spots on the islands

It wont be hard to find subjects on Sanibel.  One of the absolute favorites is our fantastic sunsets.  The sun goes down over the water here in all kinds of amazing colors.  Every day is a new experience.  The following are a few great sites I particularly love:

• Lighthouse Beach: view of causeway and gulf with a lot of great water sport activity.

• Blind Pass: unique for shore birds and sea shells along sea wall.

• Ding Darling Nature Preserve: Has walking, biking and driving trails with nature lookout points.  Plenty of gators!

• Causeway bridge: Water water everywhere! (Sorry about the bridge construction this year)

• Catch a boat tour out of Captiva to Usepa Island: great for dolphin shots and sometimes also manatees.

• Have you noticed how great beach shots look if you make sure to get some of the sea oats in the foreground? Try on any beach on the island.

• Lighthouse Pier: great for fishing shots both the human and pelican kind.  

• Try the beach in front of 'Tween Waters for the "long stretch of beach that never seems to end" type picture.

• Bowman's Beach: I love the driftwood and cormorants.
