TY TY!
I liked that one also with the canon

The Grass came out ok but I wish I had not forgot my circular polarizer it would have helped some with the colors and the light in the grass.

The wall with the writing is grafiti from the fort wall kinda sad but neat also.

One of my faves is the trailer park collectibles the colors and textures I really like.

Back well it has been better Im about to give in and go back to the dr. motrin called to offer me some shares for buying so much LOL

Cool shots. Where did you go on vacation?

We went to Amelia Island / Fernandina beach in Florida.

Its a relatively small town with tons of history! There are two forts Fort Clinch and a Spanish fort that was later used as a base by pirates but is now mostly underwater.

The angel from the other thread was from Bosque Bello cemetary and the fort I looked up is Fort San Carlos.


Neat place to visit if you are ever in the North part of Fl and want a get away.

GREEN CROSS OF FLORIDA FLAG
Spanish forces erect Fort San Carlos on the island in 1816. Led by Gregor MacGregor in 1817, a Scottish-born soldier of fortune, 55 musketeers seize Fort San Carlos, claiming the island on behalf of the "Green Cross."

MEXICAN REBEL FLAG
Spanish soldiers force MacGregor's withdrawal, but their attempt to regain complete control is foiled by American irregulars organized by Ruggles Hubbard and former Pennsylvania congressman Jared Irwin. Hubbard and Irwin later join forces with the French-born pirate Luis Aury, who lays claim to the island on behalf of the Republic of Mexico. U. S. Navy forces drive Aury from the island, and President James Monroe vows to hold Amelia Island "in trust for Spain."

LOL I hear you there! If you like to camp Ft Clinch has some RV sites and primitive also I think. In Feb around Valentines Day if you come to Olustee Fl you can camp and see the Civil War re enactors do their thing its pretty cool! The go to the next town over and the city has a parade and there is all the ladies in their hoop skirts and the soldiers and the likes. This will be the first year I will be able to get some good digital shots so I cant wait.
