The View...

Just a real quick HDR thing:

I'm shooting an annual meeting for some medical device company in Fort Myers, Florida this week. They cover all expenses, including my 10th floor suite with a view that does not suck:

Ahhh, that takes me back to some very nice summer holidays there. Probaby my favorite place we got was a dead posh flat in Naples, FL. A few over the mangroves to the beach was stunning and in the mangroves you could watch the dolfins at dawn before a spot of fishing on the beach and then watch the fish jumping in the mangroves in the evening, they drove me nuts cos try as I might I couldn't catch one, and some of those things were big too. I remember one night back after dinner to see the glass doors covered in tree frogs. Even saw a baby gator swiming beneath the bridge over the water to the beach.

Funny how a photo can bring back memories!

Oh see, and here I thought this would be a picture of 4 hens cackling at each other on a sofa. Weird. Great shot though, love it..

Gorgeous view! I've heard tell that the small island cluster offshore there was bought by Gary Fong, with money he made selling his diffusers.

Not that you need it, but good luck with the shoot. Catch you another time possibly.
