I managed to catch 'The Fort' and the 'Great Cross' in this same
frame, even with them being a half a mile apart! You can only get that whilst on a boat in the middle of the harbor, which we were.

I saw this lovely schooner in Grimstad Harbor outside Oslo. Subsequently learned it is available for charter to the public during the summer.

Well, that's it for my city-captures of historic Saint Augustine, Florida. It was our 7th consecutive year here on the 4th of July. It's always fun! I got 50 keepers. All taken in one day, and then it took me the entire month of July to post them. Hope you enjoyed them as much as I did capturing them! I still have one nice Saint Augustine sunrise to post and also a nice grouping of avian captures, also taken in Saint Augustine. And then after that I have a huge-backlog of South Florida sunsets that I still have to work on. Some really good ones! But for now it's on to August in this tense and stressful year. And if the the virus wasn't enough, we will be waking up tomorrow to a Category 2 Hurricane just off our shores! What a year! Hoping everything is good by you, where-ever in the world you might be. Thank you for looking. Best Regards from South Florida U.S.A.

On June 2, 2017, drove around Saint Petersburg, Florida looking for subjects to photograph and I found this Charter Fishing Boat at a Dock behind a Small Strip Mall on Gulf Boulevard.This is one of the docked there. There are two other Photographs prior to this one. which show the Anglers Dream Fishing Boat, which is also at the same Dock, located on the Intercoastal Water Way, on the East Side of the Barrier Island. The Gulf of Mexico is on the West Side of the St Petersburg Beach Barrier Island. The Address is 4737 Gulf Boulevard, Saint Petersburg Beach, Florida 33706.
