Maryland Lighthouses







Turkey Point
Elk Neck State Park





Although both the Turkey Point and Concord lighthouses were identical, the surrounding areas were very different--it's a mile hike on a rugged trail to get to Turkey Point. And, of course, I'd never seen any lighthouse quite like the 7-Foot Knoll Lighthouse at Baltimore's East Harbor.

Giraffes

I don't think I've ever had as much fun as I did when I fed the giraffes at Busch Gardens, Florida. It was truly hard to pick out just a few photos to display; I wanted to show them all!

Baltimore's East Harbor

If you've never been to Baltimore's East Harbor, you are missing out on a unique experience. From umbrella-covered cafe tables to the most unusual lighthouse I've ever seen, the East Harbor is a delight for vacationers and photographers alike.

Clearwater Beach, Florida Shores

















Clearwater Beach, Florida is a photographer's dream--beautiful beaches, great marinas, a plethora of wildlife, and of course, sunshine and warmth. These photos make me want to return--right now!

San Juan, Puerto Rico Beaches


























Puerto Rico
was an absolute delight for me when I visited the island for the first time. I don't know what I was expecting, but it certainly wasn't the miles and miles of beautiful beaches. Everywhere I looked, there was another beautiful view. These are just a few of my favorite shots.
