Default Sittin on the dock in the lake, waiting for the sun to go away.

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

The Villages Florida
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...

The Villages Florida
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.

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

The Villages Florida
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.
