Lovers Key State Park at New Pass
Fort Myers Beach, Florida USA

While it was my intent to capture the bird in flight, the lens was focused on
the background. This shot was taken from a sandbar I waded to at low tide only
to find it an extremely risky thing to do as I encountered an extremely strong
current on my walk back to the beach. The people on the beach are collecting
shells which the park is, in part, renowned for.
