I spent many mornings on St. George Island trying to get a nice sunrise photo of the lighthouse.  I kept missing the shot because either the sky was completely clear or it was completely covered with clouds.  Finally, near the end of our stay, the perfect combination of clouds and clear sky produced this shot for me.
Here’s an interesting moth I found clinging to the side of a building near the Sanibel Lighthouse.  It was identified by someone on Bugguide.net as a Pluto Sphinx Moth.  The wing span of this moth is 2 to 2½ inches.  It’s found in many South American countries, but in the United States it is found only in Florida and south Texas.
The Fire Island Lighthouse from the morning of September 13, 2013. I blended in a sand texture to the sky in Photoshop.
