Thank you very much - Lori, Janet and Marcie! Hi Janet, I had to use a steadybag out the window for this image, (as he was moving too fast for me to set up the tripod.) I was driving past the lagoon and saw the orange glow complete with heron, couldn't resist! #1064538

Dale Ann Cubbage January 26, 2005

Another Sandidge original! Love the colors you captured, the composition is great, and I love the ripples bleeding through his reflection. Outstanding work, girlie!

Thank you, Janet, this area has turned out to be wonderful! I was so worried after recently moving that I'd never find places like I was used to. I'm lucky to be fairly close to the Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge and east coast beaches. Thanks again! :o) #1072033
