| Name | Rick S |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I know it is hard to believe, but I literally walked out onto the beach that night right when I arrived at the hotel. I was fiddling with my phone camera to get the right settings to get a picture of the business area of Ft. Myers Beach, and as I was holding the phone in that direction and just ready to shoot, my eyes saw this and.my finger just happened to snap the shot. It was a moment I will never forget! (Notice the reflection in the water in front of me. I didn't notice that until later) |
