Al's 1st Cruise

I recently went on my very first cruise ever out of Miami Florida. We departed on the Norwegian Epic. The sunset was so beautiful when we departed out of Miami Florida.





 The first night we saw the Cirque Dreams and Dinner. The Cirque Dreams was great and the dinner was delicious , surf and turf ! The second  and third day at sea , we had Zumba fitness and many activities to keep us occupied and busy on the Norwegian Epic.

Then we began our adventure into Ocho Rios, Jamaica. Jamaica  is very poor and their school days are divided by shifts. We went to the most  famous waterfall, Dunn's River  Water falls, which is the most famous in Jamaica. We then explored the rainforest and botanical gardens.










The next day we headed to the Grand Caymans. The Grand Caymans are known most for the scuba/ snorkeling under the Carribbean Sea. I was able to get really cool underwater photos of the sea animals I saw.







The last place we stopped  was Cozumel Mexico where I enjoyed the beach and relaxed ! We enjoyed drinks and a big lunch and met some nice people. We had a beautiful forty minute boat ride each way from the ship to Passion Island.

 Welcome back to another adventure in this weeks Step Into Nature on my blog. Let's see what is going on for this post this week on Thursday.  This is a Red Headed Woodpecker, i also photographed at Jordan Lake with the master mind Al D while on a sunrise shot with him. I got several shots of both Female and Male Red Headed woodpeckers on this dead tree along side of the shore of Jordan Lake . We often don't see these  very often in central parts of North Carolina but at the Lakes of Central North Carolina, you can see them and photograph them as well. This is a Carolina Anole, I photographed at the Botanical Gardens with the marvelous walkabout trying to find lots of subjects to photograph there. We photographed many Carolina Anoles, hummingbirds and many other subjects at the Botanical Gardens. Carolina Anolies are very cool to photograph when you find them espicaily at Nc Botanical Gardens in Chapel Hill. This is a baby Cropes Grey Tree Frog which I also photographed at NC B

Step into Nature # 10

 Welcome back to another post on my blog for this weeks Step into Nature. Let's see what adventures of the post we are going to do for this weeks Step into Nature. This a Tri- Colored Heron, Which I photographed at Pickney Wildlife Refuge while I was on vacation way back in Hilton Head. The Tri- Colored Herons a very cool waterfowl to photograph and they have different color variants compared to the Great Blue Herons found in Central North Carolina, where I live. If you have a chance to find TriColor Herons you should photograph them and they are just like the other waterfowl that can be found in central North Carolina . This is a Jellyfish, which I photographed at Myrtle Beach during sunset conditions. The photograph came out really cool. Jelly Fish are very interesting subjects to photograph at local beaches.  I decided to use the jelly fish as my subject for this photograph  during sunset conditions. This was also taken at Myrtle Beach when i was on vacation in 2019. This is an
