    Tampa Morning

    These images I captured on an August morning 14 years ago in Tampa. I went to one of my frequent spots on Ballast Point. I wish I could claim I had been clever and went out this morning for these conditions, but that would not be true.

    Incoming clouds and storms created a contrasting scene in which the rising sun lit up the sky and surrounding areas, but downtown still remained lit as if it were still night time. Despite the incoming storms, Hillsborough Bay was still calm and reflective.

    Upon review of these images I really wish I had focus assist on this DSLR as many are quite soft or technically out of focus. Nevertheless, I still enjoy these images so much I decided to keep them.
