Spring into Fall

With El Nino approaching, we now get sixty-five degree water, sharks, flying fish and mola mola, etc.

IMG_1006One of the best things that has appeared in Estero Bay is the ”Spring suit.” This is a godsend for the photographer.  No longer are we shooting a figure wrapped in black garden hose. Now we have color and a defined figure with “gams.”
