Real Estate Photography - Capturing the Mood
Real estate photography should highlight the property, whether it is a home, condo, duplex, or even raw land. Therefore, the subject property will dictate to an extent what pictures need to be taken.  Most photos will concentrate on interiors and features to show potential home buyers what the home looks like on the inside. Ideally, photos should also convey a sense of layout. 
Another important aspect of real estate photography is capturing the mood by taking advantage of exterior features and geographical orientation such as the direction someone will look to from a back or front yard.

hernando beach waterfront living: Secret Summer Hot Spot in Hernando Beach, Florida - 06/28/15 02:03 AM
Secret Summer Hot Spot in Hernando Beach, Florida
 
Hernando Beach locals know where to go and have fun when summer heats up in this waterfront community!  
 
Their secret summer hot spot may not be that secret among Hernando Beach residents but outsiders who are unfamiliar with the area, often looking for "the beach", find out soon that the area's name is a misnnomer.  Yes, that's right, no beach in Hernando Beach.  Of course,  just a few miles away, there is Pine Island beach which is a great place to enjoy a day.  
 
But Hernando Beach residents are not too disturbed by the lack … (13 comments)

Hernando Beach Florida Dolphin Raffle to Support New Community Park
The Hernando Beach Property Owners Association is currently raising funds for the construction of the Triangle Park at the intersection of Shoal Line and Osowaw Boulevards as part of the Hernando Beach beautification program.

Foto Friday:  Spring Duckling in Hernando Beach Florida
With the warmer weather I am enjoying the outdoors again and of course, my own backyard is my favorite backdrop for Florida Wildlife Photography.
The other day I was amusing myself feeding the fish and the sea gulls when this little duckling came bobbing along. The first baby duck of the season!  I was surprised to seem him all alone - Mama Duck was nowhere to be seen.  But little ducklings are born relatively independent, they can swim and find their own food immediately after hatching the egg.  This one nibbled a little on the bread that was floating on the water … (18 comments)

hernando beach waterfront living: What is that Strange Bird On the Rocks? - 03/09/13 11:22 AM
What is that Strange Bird On the Rocks? Usually, I'm pretty good identifying birds but this bird "on the rocks" in the Gulf waters by Hernando Beach has me guessing.
I was thinking this strange bird might belong to the tern family that is distinguished from gulls by pointed bills and wings yet it seems to have somewhat longer legs than most terns and the coloration is not like any tern.
Consulting my trusted field guide finally revealed the identity of this guy!  It's an American Oystercatcher and I don't remember seeing one before!
Oystercatchers feed on mullusks that they dig for on coastal … (16 comments)

Foto Friday:  The Eagle has Landed in Hernando Beach Florida
One of our more illustrious residents in the waterfront community of Hernando Beach is this American Bald Eagle that chose one of the dormant trees as his roosting place.  We often have the opportunity to see these majestic birds soar high over the waterways and canals of Hernando Beach in order to spot their next meal.
This beautiful sighting is yet another great example of the many opportunities of bird watching in Hernando Beach.  Did you notice how the smaller birds are keeping an "eye" on the Eagle?
