Beach scene

A private beach in Key Biscayne. For more skies, take a look at Skywatch. Photo taken in December 2015.

Cranes on the fairway

This pair of cranes was so still, I thought for a moment they might be statues. Photo taken in December 2015.

Back to the PO

I just had to take a quick trip back to the PO for a closeup on the sign. I just love the curve of the building and, of course, that proud eagle. You'll find more signs here. Photo taken in December 2015.

Hanging out

The art deco style lifeguard house is also popular with the seagulls. Photo taken in December 2015.

End homelessness

This looks like parking meter, but it isn't. It's a piggy bank for the homeless! Passers-by in Miami Beach are invited to drop in a few coins to help end homelessness in the city. A very nice idea! 

For more murals, take a look here. Photos taken in December 2015.

Drama

Lots of drama over the water at Bunche Beach in Fort Meyers. You'll find more skies at Skywatch and more reflections here. Photo taken in December 2015.

Another Art Deco beauty

This hotel along South Beach was in the middle of a makeover. I'm glad to see these beautiful buildings are being maintained. Photo taken in December 2015.

Classic

There were rows and rows of old-time post boxes inside the Miami Beach branch. I just love those engraved doors. For more signs, take a look here. Photo taken in December 2015.

Inside the PO

When you walk into the Miami Beach post office, you are immediately greeted by this beautiful mural by Florida artist Charles Hardman which shows Ponce de Leon's advance into Florida. Photo taken in December 2015.

At the PO

The art deco post office in Miami Beach is without a doubt the most beautiful post office I've ever seen. I'll show you more through the week. Photo taken in December 2015.

Fancy fence

Somehow I find these wrought iron fences better in black and white. Photo taken in December 2015.

Pure Miami

This building just screams Miami to me! Photo taken in December 2015.

Lifeguard

A trip to South Beach would not be complete without a snap of one of the colorful lifeguard stands. You'll find more signs here. Photo taken in December 2015.

South Beach

A look at the famed South Beach. It was full of tourists in town for New Year's Eve and the Orange Bowl. Photo taken in December 2015.

Diamonds in her eyes

Not sure what it means, but the mural is certainly colorful and eye-catching! You'll find more murals here. Photo taken in December 2015.

Great egret reflected

I saw so many herons of all colors when I was in Florida, but the great egret remains one of my favorites. For more reflections take a look here. Photo taken in December 2015.

Florida fauna

It's amazing how much iguanas blend into their surroundings. This one was bright green just a few minutes before I snapped this shot. Photo taken in December 2015.

To serve and protect

Found this bright one on South Beach. I guess they were getting ready for any New Year's Eve emergencies that might happen. You'll find more signs here. Photo taken in December 2015.

Relaxing on South Beach

A couple of guys hanging out on a bench in South Beach, Miami. Does it get any better? Photo taken in December 2015.
