Default Sunset off Anna Maria Island Florida

I have to say ive never seen such amazing sunsets and beautiful baby powder white sand as i found on vacation to Anna Maria island down in Florida. Hope you enjoy.

Anna Maria island Florida

This photo also amazes me to think that its all fresh water...yes its Lake Michigan. I didnt realise that it would be so large and have waves and beaches just like the ocean. I love going there and just sitting and taking photos and feeding the seagulls.

Lake Michigan

WoW Lorraine these two photographs are beautiful. What I would give to be there right now. The sea looks so inviting in the second one and the sunset is one of the best I ever saw. That is just so so beautiful. Your talent came shining out on that one. this is exceptional photography.

Wow Lorraine, these are just wonderful. I always love to see the rays coming out of the clouds like that.
And a lake that acts like an ocean...yeah, I'm all for that.

the sunrays filtering thru the clouds in the first one are AWESOME WOW .. the whole sunset is just amazing Lori , beautiful !

I often go to the beach with the camera and after seeing your wonderful second wide angle, I think I might now see a little more when I am there trying to form images, your image is simple, but full of interest with the beachline, waves, horizon and the clouds.. I can hear the waves

thanks for showing them

Vin
