My Wordless Sunday # 8

Palm Trees Waving

Palm trees at Smather's beach - a very peaceful place.

a pearl grey sky.

Tropical Beach Scenes

I'm back to my "good old" Palm pictures again.... The pictures are new, but the subject is "old". And I have to tell you again: I love palm trees!

Single palm at Smather's Beach on a cloudy day

That looks like rain out there on the horizon!

Smather's beach is normally empty on a day like this....

...except a sleeping beach bum who is dreaming there on the bench, probably about some better days he had in the past.

Palm trees in Black & White

It was a gray and cloudy day, barely sunshine.... I went to the beach to shoot some pictures in black & white.
They look much better then they would look in color.

Sorry, that you have to keep up with palm trees again, but I think they belong to paradise like the pine trees to the rolling hills on other places.

And I love palm trees!

Turquoise Sea

It's hot again in paradise - this is the perfect day to go to the beach and have a swim in the turquoise ocean - wish you were here?

The "Blue Lagoon"...

This is one of my favorite pictures and one of my best sellers at the pier, where I'm putting up my little booth (almost) every night - selling my photography to the tourists from all over the world.

I call it "The Blue Lagoon" and you will find these inviting place at Smather's Beach on the Atlantic side.

Five Things to do in Key West - Serie 1

Hanging out on the beach for a while.....

Having breakfast or lunch with the roosters in "Blue-Haven" in Bahama-Village....

Visiting the Southernmost Point from the U.S. at the end of Whitehead Street....

Feeling the spirit of Ernest Hemingway and petting his cats all over in the house or in the yard....

Enjoying the breathtaking sunsets together and have a dream about living here for ever.

Up up to the Sky...

Look up in the sky and see all the palms in the Florida clouds - this is a tropical view at Smathers Beach in a warm, Sunday evening sunset light. This is the picture of Florida that I always have in my mind.

Wenn ich an Florida denke, kommt mir dieses Bild in den Sinn: Palmen die sich wiegen im Abendlicht und die so typischen Floridawolken am Himmel, alles abgestimmt in einer farblichen Harmonie.

This is the place where I do photograph a lot of weddings like last weekend happend. It is a fun job to photograph all these happy and so much in love couples and Smather's Beach is a perfect background scene to celebrate the biggest day in life.

An diesem Platz, unter diesen Palmen, habe ich schon viele Hochzeiten fotografiert - wie gerade geschehen letztes Wochenende. Es macht grossen Spass all diese Hochzeitspaare in ihrem Glueck zu sehen und zu erleben. Und Smather's Beach liefert den perfekten Hintergrund um den grossen Tag gebuehrend zu zelebrieren.
