Crab Cay - Mangrove (Video)

I also took a video while we were motoring around the mangroves.

Crab Cay - Mangroves

Later in the day we took the boat to Crab Cay where there are a bunch of mangroves. We took the dingy into the mangroves.
The mangroves were very pretty and were flowering. This mangrove area was also quite shallow.

Manjack Cay - North

We spent the night off Manjack Cay. In the morning we took the dingy and kayaks to the beach to see the sting rays and some sharks. We all did some snorkeling.
The water generally had very pretty colors.

Great Abaco Island – Marsh Harbour – Leonard M. Thompson International Airport

We started our trip in the Bahamas by landing at Leonard M. Thompson International Airport in Marsh Harbour on Great Abaco Island. The airport is quite small with no normal gates, all stairs / ramps and walks on the tarmac.
You can take some closer than usual photos of planes.

Vermont Trip - February 2019

We went for a quick overnight trip to Burlington, VT. We saw my brother who was in visiting a friend of his. Then we stayed overnight at our friend's place and dropped off an air compressor and shelving unit previously moved out of our storage unit.
I did not take a whole lot of pictures. On the way up on Friday we stopped at the Sharon Rest Area on I-89 northbound in Vermont. It was an interesting facility because they do not have an easy supply of clean water. Therefore for flushing they use water treated on site in a green housed filtration system.
The green house houses the filtration system.

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport - Between Concourses A & B

When we arrived in Atlanta from Philadelphia we walked instead of taking the train to leave the terminal. On our way out of Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport we saw this art installation and made sure to give ourselves extra time to photograph it on our departure. This art installation is in the underground walkway between concourses A and B.
Again we alternated lenses and settings. These were all taken using a Canon Rebel T2i (550D). All photos were taken with fixed ISO of 100 and at Aperture Value of 9.0 using a Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM lens.
Looking at this and the PHL post it looks like the way the photos are uploaded and compressed they really muddy dark sections of the photos.

Philadelphia International Airport - Between Terminals B & C

Holly and I took a trip to Atlanta over a weekend. We took a pre-7:00 AM flight from Boston to Philadelphia and then on to Atlanta. While we were in Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) there was a sunrise and Holly wanted photos.
We messed with lenses and settings some. These were all taken using a Canon Rebel T2i (550D). All photos were taken with fixed ISO of 100.
It is interesting how much lower quality these look uploaded to this blog than they do on my desktop. I have not looked at all of my uploaded photos before but these are particularly bad, which I have not noticed before. Maybe this is an initial compression and it will be improved late.
