Description
Of my many visits to the Hillsborough river just north of Tampa Florida this has to be the most pleasant of all. I started this walk along the bank and was amazed by the peacefulness of the woods. The only thing breaking the calm of the moment was a big alligator and his only disturbance was the ripples on the water! I was not here to photograph alligators. He was to far away for me to get a good photo of him anyway. As the sun started to get low in the sky I was in awe of this view!! The river took a hard turn to the left and the sunlight was able to shine through to the other side of the river bank in an amazing way! With in seconds of my taking this photo, I noticed this lone white Ibis flying over and I snapped the photo!!! I call this photo "Hidden Light" I hope you like it as much as I enjoyed taking it!!!

I like it as much as you taking it Randy! A great capture of such serene beauty. A glassy river with a gorgeous reflection. The alligator part not so good for me. Their presence would probably keep me from that walk. Add courage to your talents. LV/FV Janet
