Went to Lake Sumter early to play around a little while waiting for a beautiful sunset.

Here is a fun shot of the lake with the dramatic cloud coverage we have been having with all the rain lately. Luckily it didn't rain today.

This fellow was curious about what I was doing hanging around his feeding place...

A lovely couple came by and seeing my camera, asked me to take their photo. The light was really harsh at this point, but I think it turned out fairly well anyway. We exchanged emails, so I could send it to them - I need to start taking some "Villages cards" we have with me.

This is just before sunset, pretty, but not the full-on red sunset I was hoping for.

So, I helped mother nature a little - maybe too much.

Lake Sumpter? No, no, no.
It's Cherry Lake.
Lake Sumter Landing is simply a combination of the two county names, like the Community College.

Nice photos. FL sunsets and sunrises are beautiful. Also, too much sun can bite you even with a bit of cloud cover.

Thank you very much for the kind words.

I do take requests if there is anything you would like.

EDIT: After posting this reply, I thought about it, and it sounds really egotistical to me, and it was not meant that way at all. I love to take photos and I am always looking for ideas - if anyone has any I would love to try and take it. And if someone wants a candid portrait, I also enjoy those.

I don't understand your question, do you mean you can't see the photo's posted here? Or are you asking if I have a website?

I post my photos on Flickr because this site does not let me simply upload them here. Clicking on any of my photos here should take you to Flickr - but be warned it is not organized, it is just a bunch of random photos I have taken lately.
