Howdy folks, the year has started out very busy. But not busy enough to take photos of the pre dawn light over the islands. I love following the changing light in the morning.

I have been a Shelling Guide to Cayo Costa State Park since 1995. Many people know me as the Shelling Guide and Captain with Captiva Cruises over the past 20 years. In 2016 I began solely offering private small boat charters to the islands of Pine Island Sound including Cayo Costa State Park, Cabbage Key, Useppa Island, Pine Island and North Captiva. I am a certified Florida Master Naturalist, licensed USCG Captain, avocational photographer, seashell enthusiast and passionate about the history, people and culture of Southwest Florida, especially Cayo Costa. I volunteer as a member of Friends of Cayo Costa State Park and have great respect for the heritage of Cayo Costa. My goal is to provide guests with an overall experience and appreciation for the waters, islands, shells, plants, marine life, wildlife, history and people of this unique area of Southwest Florida.

    Beautiful photos. It is certainly uplifting to look at the tranquility of the water , especially when it has been so cold and snowy / icy here in the Baltimore-Washington area lately. Thanks for posting those pictures.

    Kathy, You are welcome. It was one of those mornings. I took over a hundred photos of the changing light. The smell and feeling of sliding over the water on that morning with my camera was strong.

    Captain Brian, what gorgeous photos. I wish we could have stayed a few more days. Our next will need to start in the early morning hours. Until then, please keep posting your photos.
