Dunedin, Florida: Honeymoon Island Nature Trail 11

Click for larger picture in a new window

I have been feeling the urge to get outside a bit more lately. But I have been stymied by work. So, since I can't get there in person, I decided to post some pictures of the kinds of places I would like to be. Why? Because I like to share these beautiful places with you all, so you can enjoy them too!

This photograph was taken out on Honeymoon Island, also known as Honeymoon Island State Park, while hiking the Nature Trail. It's a really awesome place, that gives you a deeply natural feeling. It's easy to get out there, the trail is easy to get to and easy to hike. Definitely a thumbs up recommendation on this trail!

Dunedin, Florida: Action Snaps: Classic Jeep Wagoneer

Click for larger picture in a new window

Still on my action photography kick here. Another in the series from that street corner. As the cable guy says: "I could do this all day." But don't worry, I'll let it be for a bit after today. I don't want anyone out there to get motion sickness from too many moving pictures!

As I review these shots, I think I might be getting the hang of this action snapping thing. It's cool to see how one particular area seems to come into focus so well, while the rest is blurred by the movement. I guess it is about getting my panning speed and focus lined up right. What fun. As near as I can tell, this is a classic Jeep Limited Wagoneer.

Did you know that Amazon.com has a whole section devoted to Jeep Wagoneer? It's true! You can help support Dunedin Daily Photo by shopping for Jeep goodies with these advertisers:

Dunedin, Florida: Moving Motorcycle Man

As I mentioned earlier, there was the one man I photographed as he rode by on his motorcycle who did not look really happy. I don't know if he was suspicious of me and my camera, or just having a serious moment.

Again, though, I do not know what kind of motorcycle it is: Harley Davidson? Suzuki? Kawasaki? Honda? Yamaha? I don't know... and there are many more brands that might have a model like this one: Triumph, American Eagle, Buell, Confederate, Indian, Norton, and the list goes on and on.

Dunedin, Florida: Action Snaps: Trailered Boat

Click for larger picture in a new window

Standing on a Downtown Dunedin street corner, near the Dunedin Marina, practicing my action photography, I snapped this neat looking boat. I don't know where it was heading, or where it came from, but I am pretty happy with how that shot turned out. Thank you Nikon! Let's here it for being able to preview the shot immediately.

This turns out to be a great way, for me, to practice the panning action shot. I can stand there on the corner and snap away at people in cars. Some give me strange looks, many never even notice I am there. Later, I will post a snap of a man on a motorcycle who didn't really look all that happy about me photographing him. But then, maybe he was thinking about something else entirely.

Okay, not really flying. Okay, didn't really hit the building. But hey, life is short, make up stories! (Yeah, didn't see that coming, did you?)

So, the awesome bead covered bicycle is hanging out on this building, adorning their bicycle rental and sales business. Rentals? you say? Yes! This building is located right next to the Pinellas Trail! And once you rent your bicycle and hit the trail, many wonderful destinations are just a short pedal away. More on that in future posts.
