Not waking up at 5 am helps.

Wait! You now have a pig?

No, some kid who had his back turned to the sunset the entire time and, as far as I could tell, never caught a fish either!

I'm anything but a professional. Been shooting for 10 years or so, and really got into it about 5 years ago when I retired. Had been shooting with a Fuji X-T5 until recently, but shifted to the Z8 and still getting used to it.

Thanks. Most shots taken with a Nikon Z8 and 24-70 F2.8 lense. The Miami Beach shot was taken with a Fuji X100VI.

Thanks. We're luck to have a dark skies around this lighthouse (except for the few seconds every minute when the light is shining).
