The John T Alsop Bridge crosses the St. Johns River in Jacksonville, Florida. I shot this at 170mm to achieve a compressed architectural abstract feel.

During the 2024 Carolina Balloonfest Competition, pilots launch approximately two miles from a designated target zone at the festival grounds and must navigate to the zone and drop a marker within the target zone without landing the balloon. Here a balloon pilot launches his marker over the target zone.

Architectural abstract from a rooftop in Hogsmeade in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter attraction at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida. On this family trip, I finally got around to shooting RAW files on my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, my first attempt at processing raw files from my phone in Lightroom. Doesn’t match the quality of my Nikon Z8, but fits nicely in my pocket on a 3D coaster ride!

Cheers,

On site and afterwards online, ! was unable to determine the story behind this abandoned building in Thunderbolt, Georgia, near the Wilmington River. Nevertheless, I thought it was kinda cool.
