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: What We Drive: Jaguar!

Click for larger picture in a new window

I stopped in my tracks when I saw this Jaguar. I was not aware they had such a beauty in their latest lineup, but they do! I believe this is the latest Jaguar XK. WOW!

A funny thing happened on the way to the Blog... So, I see this gorgeous car, and I stop and start taking pictures. Suddenly, the driver's door pops open and this man gets out, stops, and looks at me as if to say "Gee, I give up... what the HECK are you doing?"

I had to laugh out loud as I told him I thought his car was beautiful and I couldn't resist taking a picture of it. That melted him pretty fast. He was thrilled at my adoration of his car.

Evidently, this person thinks Dunedin Daily Photo is pretty cool. And it's true... I do! I think it's worth telling people about. It's worth asking you to tell other people about. I hope you are enjoying it, and I hope you will help spread the word. I want lots of people to know about Dunedin, and what a cool place it is!

I hope you are having a great weekend, and I hope you enjoy the rest of it. Did you know, the 34th Annual Tarpon Springs Fine Arts Festival is going on this weekend? Yup, even as I write this, art lovers are wandering among the trees and tents at Craig Park on Spring Bayou in Tarpon Springs. Scroll down to see the information I copied from the TarponSprings.com website.

Dunedin, Florida: Edgewater Drive: Waterfront Light Show

Click for larger picture in a new window

The funny thing is, it didn't look like a light show when I was down there snapping pictures! It just looked like cars driving by, and the sun going down, and a beautiful golden glow covering all the wonderful homes there.

I know these pictures are easy to come by, but it doesn't seem to keep me from taking some more of them whenever I get the chance. It's like clouds, trees, and so on... there are certain subjects that, no matter how many images of them I might already have, I always snap some more when I see it again. Oy! What about you?

Dunedin, Florida: Driving On Main, Driving In The Rain

We were blessed with some rain today. I was driving on Main Street, I was driving in the rain. Okay so far. Then I had the crazy idea... gee, I'm going to take a picture. Of course, what a brilliant idea. That's pretty much the end of the story. :D

No, not my best picture ever, but I thought it did a nice job of conveying the moment. And hey, who doesn't love the fun, colorful streaks made by the cars driving by? If it matters, this is the intersection with Belcher Rd. and US HWY 19 is in the distance.

Dunedin, Florida: Trials & Tribulations

They say you get what you pay for. Well, I paid nothing, and that's what I am suddenly getting. I apologize for the disappearance of the photos in my recent posts. Evidently, the carefully chosen free photo hosting site I selected is performing major upgrades that will make my experience with them even more enjoyable. I'm thrilled.

In the meantime, however, I am also steamed. I hope you can forgive the disappointment, and check back again tomorrow to see if they have brought back my pictures. Perhaps by then, I will be able to upload new photographs for your viewing pleasure.

In the meantime, as long as it lasts, here is one I don't think you've seen yet (and if there is nothing there when you get here, I apologize again):

Dunedin, Florida: Green Bug at Dunedin Marina

Click for larger picture in a new window

What we drive. Yes, another VW Bug. I can't help it. I see them, I must photograph them! It's just that pathologically simple. Hee hee hee. This one was at the Dunedin Marina. I was creeping around taking pictures after dark. Nice bug, nice little bug.

Seriously though, I grew up with these cars, and they have a special place in my heart. I owned one of my own, many years ago. It brought back fond memories of riding in the ones owned by my Grandparents, and then my parents. I would take a VW Bug just about any day of the week. And yes, I still hope to own another one some day. And YES, you will see more of these pictures, because when I see one, I am GOING to snap it! :)

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!

Dunedin, Florida: What We Drive: Black Pearl Pirate Jeep Wrangler

Click for larger picture in a new window

Okay Jeep Wranglers are, generally, kind of cool. Or at least, let's suppose that is true for the moment. (I actually never owned one myself, I went straight from All-American hot-rod muscle cars to practical vehicles like SUV's and pickup trucks). Then add to that the very cool looking skull and crossed swords on the spare tire cover. THEN throw in the name "Black Pearl" (Can you say "Pirates of the Caribbean"?). Now what have you got? A pretty cool looking Jeep Wrangler. It's what we drive, some of us.
