As I did last year, I am soon off to South West Florida for several days to shoot a few pictures and visit my big brother, Joe Parisi, who is also a photographer (see his work at www.framefocusshoot.com).  He is mostly a wildlife photographer, so we will be looking for lots of birds, especially herons, cranes, spoonbills,  other wading birds, and maybe a gator or two. I would also like to get a few snaps of pelicans.  I really get a kick out of pelicans--and I also have a customer who wants a nice shot of one--and I always try to be accommodating!

       We are also supposed to go to a few coastal, non-bird places such as Cape Romano and the Naples pier.  I plan to shoot in color, of course, but I will also be keeping a look out for some images that will make good black and white shots. (As you may know I am really into black and white these days.)

         Rest assured that if I get anything good, I will be sharing them with you.  Meantime, you can check out here on the website a few of the photographs I took last time I was in the Sunshine State.  Cheers!
