July 21 Interesting angles and light. A building, likely a hotel, along AIA in Hollywood FL.
July 20 The space shuttle, May 2010, roars into space, slipping earth's pull. Taken from a boat on the Banana River. Incredible. Seeing how the fleet will be retired after the last shuttle lands on July 21st, I figured I post this as a tribute.
July 19 Another day, another sunrise. Dania Beach Pier again. Like the colors but where oh where are the clouds? Clouds always make a sunrise photo that much more interesting. Oh well.
July 18 Fireworks at Deerfield Beach just south of the pier. Ewwwwwww! Ahhhhhh! July 4th 2011.
July 17
Dania Beach FL pier at sunrise, guessing sometime late summer 2010, but not for sure. Not the best sunrise, nor the best image of the pier, but after running the image through Topaz Adjust, I kinda like it.
July 16
Sunflowers at Seattle's famous Pike Place Market. Returning from a cruise through Alaska, my second, we drove down to Seattle for a couple of days' stay after departing the ship in Vancouver, CAN. The market has a few florists and flower stands with the most amazingly colorful flowers and plants. Trying out my new camera indoors at the market, I got this. JPEG online does not do the actual shot justice. Lots of detail in the original.
July 15 WWII-era USAF B-17G bomber the Liberty Belle, pictured at Banyan Air Service at Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport, Oct 21, 2009. Unfortunately, on July 13, 2011, the Liberty Belle experienced an in-flight fire during a routine flight in the skies over Aurora, Indiana, and was forced to emergency land in a farmer's field near the airport. The fire started on the right wing, the cause of which is unknown but being investigated. Upon landing, passengers and crew evacuated the airplane safely. Fire rescue was alerted earlier while the Liberty Belle was in flight by another Liberty Foundation airplane following the Belle. Sadly, fire crews were unable to access the field due to recent rains softening the soil, and the Belle was consumed by the fire. The historic plane is a complete loss.
