I went fishing with “seabass” the other evening. It was windy but the waves were not bad. We motored around in the dark flipping live shrimp over the grass beds. seabass caught a cat fish but I caught a little bonnet head shark! seabass and I both recorded an image with us holding it before letting is swim on it’s way.
One of the very pleasant things about people thinking you are a photographer is this. They pay you to celebrate some of the most joyous occasions of their lives. Recently I was hired to record images at the 4th birthday of a child by one of the most gracious host I have ever encountered. This lady is a super party giver. The decor, the food and the families at her parties are enough to make you throw a fit when it is time to leave and I saw a few of the children doing just that. Here are some images of the food and a cutie that was splashing in the pool.
It sure is a blessing from God to have this as an occupation.
I was enlisted to record images at the April 25, 2009 walk for life. The Life Impact Network hosted the walk at the campus of the Idlewild campus. Frtizy was there and there was a great testimony given by a courageous young woman.
Had a great time during my first Sun n Fun fly in. It was nice to be there with friends from church who have been numerous times in the past! Here are the best of the images I was able to record.
I think youtube is pretty much a waste on the whole. Just a giant nebulous cloud of vapid erroneous self important drivel to be exact, but then I haplessly stumble across Shay Carl!
It is probably unwise to let the world know that his video’s are unduly entertaining to me but here I am compelled to introduce you to them thinking they just might be entertaining to you. Here are three that I think begin to shed light on a man who is who he is.
This is the first video I saw then I watched more.

I think he knows the way the truth and the life.
I just returned from South Tampa Fellowship Davis Islands first service since the grand opening of the Ballast point campus. It was amazing! There were so many folks that without the overflow simulcast chairs were on stage and out into the atrium! More than 400 people with smiling faces were greeting each other in what was a very joyful reunion.
The preschool building was hopping as well and it was such a blessing to see the once lifeless courtyard filled again with children of all ages. I would estimate that there were over 60 children from babies to fifth grade being show and taught the love of Jesus again in what was once a run down little apartment building on the island.
So many of us watch over the years as the Davis Islands Baptist Church grew well beyond the capacity for one Sunday service! God taught us how to go to two services and then three. God refined us into a church whose building was smaller than our congregation and yet we had very little problem adapting and prospering with His perfect provision. We are ready to have our fellowship at both ends of the Bayshore and to see it bring Glory to God.
Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right.
A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.Proverbs 16:8-9
Thank you Lord for you faithfulness!
After Far to much drama I have completed the mobile vegetable garden complete with micro irrigation system! My goal was to make the most efficient and worry free garden possible without spending much money. I am really excited to see everything grow and looking forward to enjoying the produce at meal times!
These Oyster Toadfish must have the biggest mouth to body length in the world. My brother and I have caught about about four of them in the last two weeks.
