Photos from Florida

Photos from Florida

I’m still working on the memorial post for my father. Until it’s done, here are some photos that I took in Florida and above the earth as we flew.

My father used to tell me when I was a child: “The way to get good pictures is to squeeze the shutter slowly and gently.”

He had a lot of wise sayings, my father. Here’s another: “The fish would never get caught if it didn’t open its mouth.” I couldn’t help thinking of it as I watched people fishing on the bayou.
