That image is too good for newspaper print.

I was going to say World famous in Miami and POTN. Congratulations it is an honor.

P.S. What a crappy reproduction in news print, the original is very nice. ;)

That's a great shot! Where were you when you took it? I recognize the lighthouse and Atlantis in the background, but I can't figure out your vantage point. Were you in a plane?

Thank You!!!

Great eye Becca, but no airplane. I was on the RCCL Cruise ship Majesty of the Seas as she left Nassau. I had about 5 minutes of good shooting as the ship rounded the lighthouse and headed out to sea. I was on Deck 10.. so my "altitude" was between 120' and 150'.

That's a beautiful shot, and the newspaper print doesn't do it justice.

Congratulations.

Wow. That's awesome. Congrats! I used to work for a couple of papers and got some stories published, but never an image in a major paper. I would love to do that. Beautiful image!
