This image was taken near Fort Lauderdale at the Wakodahatchee Wetlands in January. This female green iguana was lunching on white flowers about one third to one half of an inch in diameter. I was hoping that I would be able to get some jaw action. To my surprise, when she opened her mouth, the flower was intact! I turned to the two folks next to me and remarked that I could go home now because I had taken the shot for the day. The use of highlight and shadows in PhotoShop was important in illuminating the flower and its foliage.

This image was of the Bay Bridge taken from the water. Rarely does one get the opportunity to photograph the bridge from that perspective and when Jeff Flemming announced his sunrise shoot on the bay workshop, I jumped at the opportunity. We launched at 5:30 AM and covered over 40 miles. In addition to the bridge I got some excellent images of working oystermen and some lighthouses I never knew existed. As an added bonus, each participant was able to professionally print their image using Jay’s state of the art large format printer.
