9.5 Years Late, Stunning May Day 2016 Sunset At Tampa Bay Florida - IMRAN®

9.5 Years Late, Stunning May Day 2016 Sunset At Tampa Bay Florida - IMRAN®

I am so blessed with all the moments I have experienced and captured in my life. Sometimes it takes me a decade even to post a photo from my "To Post" album!

At least this one is being posted in less than a decade — merely 9.5 years LOL — since I captured this gorgeous Tampa Bay, Florida pre-summer sunset. Photo taken with the nearly 18-year old Nikon D300 at my blessed home in Apollo Beach.

Symphony Isles Apollo Beach Holiday Lights Drive Through 2025 In 1-Minute 15X Hyperlapse - IMRAN®

Symphony Isles Apollo Beach Holiday Lights Drive Through 2025 In 1-Minute 15X Hyperlapse - IMRAN®

The Symphony Isles holiday lights drive-through is a popular Apollo Beach, Florida tradition. I'm blessed to be at the last house on the boulevard, so all the traffic turns through the cul-de-sac.

Enjoy the nearly 750 cars and golf-carts that went through there, in just 2-hours, in this one-minute hyperlapse video I recorded at my front door.

The music is my track "Start At The End" from the original motion picture soundtrack album "Happy Endings" coming in 2026. No puns intended.

Complex Clouds, Magnificent Magical Tantalizing Textures, Span Sunset - IMRAN®

Complex Clouds, Magnificent Magical Tantalizing Textures, Span Sunset - IMRAN®

Words can barely capture the incredibly complex cloud textures and tones that spanned the early August sunset over Tampa Bay. Earlier rain had made the pavers around the pool look darker. 

This HDR (high dynamic range) panorama was created from about eight handheld shots taken with the Nikon D850, stitched together in Adobe Lightroom Classic CC.

On one side, sharp clouds carved dramatic shapes, while in the middle, higher formations smoothed into silky, fog-like patterns. Even farther above, smaller distant shapes reflected the fading sun’s light, deepening the scene into darker, redder tones.

I chose not to “correct” those hues, because they lend the image an indescribable richness—one that others often chase with filters, but nature gifted me directly.

Nights In [Purple & Gold] Satin - Aerial Appreciation Stunning Sunset Dramatic Dusk - Apollo Beach, Tampa Bay, Florida - IMRAN®

As dusk darkened, new Nights in Purple and Gold Satin draped Apollo Beach, Tampa Bay, Florida — and me. In that radiant veil, the glow of my eternal gratitude burned bright, a light no night could dim. 

This is an absolutely unedited, untouched, SOOC (straight out of camera) DJI M3P drone video I captured at my blessed home on August 2, 2025.

Capturing Tampa Bay Florida Sunset In Timelapse, Panorama, 360° At Apollo Beach Home Exactly 2 Years Ago Today - IMRAN®

This is a video clip created from 300+ individual Nikon D300 which did not have that feature built-in back in 2007 when I got it as a great gift. This was the sunset exactly 2 years ago. Enjoy the music video of the unusual lighting and colors as clouds, rain, and sunset did their best to confuse the camera. You can see me working on capturing panorama and still shots with the Nikon D850 and 360°x360° with the Insta360 R2.

A Dog's Life: Hot (Spicy Pakistani Food Loving German Shepherd) Dogs - One Year Ago Today - IMRAN®

A Dog's Life: Hot (Spicy Pakistani Food Loving German Shepherd) Dogs - One Year Ago Today - IMRAN®
About one year ago I started telling the story of Kennedy in a series of ongoing posts.... "A Dog's Life" was the recurring title phrase. Exactly one year ago today, I captured a moment that carries immense meaning in my heart.
My beloved German Shepherd Dog Kennedy (on the left) and his playful puppy companion K2 shared their love for spicy food—a joyful scene. I had made slow-cooked Pakistani beef (Nihari) with marrow-filled bones, a treat too tempting to keep to myself.
Despite knowing their doggie beds would bear the consequences, I brought the bones to them in my cluttered home office. It was worth every bit of mess to see them savor the flavors and stay close to me.
Kennedy had been facing some struggles those past few days, and in his gaze, you might notice a trace of that. Yet, his indomitable spirit—an eternal part of my soul—shines through in the way he acknowledges the spicy treat with a heartfelt smile.
That moment is a cherished reminder of his incredible strength and love for life. Best Dog Ever!

Heaven's Bloodshot Eyes Crying Oceans Of Tears In Memory Of My Beloved Mom's 33rd Death Anniversary (2/2/1992) - IMRAN®

Heaven's Bloodshot Eyes Crying Oceans Of Tears In Memory Of My Beloved Mom's 33rd Death Anniversary (2/2/1992) - IMRAN®

My beloved mother left us at age 50 on 2/2/1992. Even after 33 years, the tears have not ceased. Thinking of that day still brings an unending flow of sorrow.

As I saw this sunset on her anniversary at my blessed Florida home, I was overtaken by emotion. Even heaven's eyes are bloodshot, crying oceans of tears. The sun seemed to understand the pain I, her firstborn son, have endured all these years.

I do not expect it to abate now or for the time I have left before I see her again in the Universe around us.

Believe me, you will see more shades of stunning shocking pink seaside skies in this 30-second time-lapse video than you could catch in a lipstick manufacturer's catalog.

Even the sunset was stunning, but the dusk skies are mind-blowing. Also watch the cruise ship zip by and Tampa International Airport (TPA) traffic zooming by.

Kennedy Watched For Dolphins Nearby As K2 Went For A Swim In Tampa Bay Waters Mid-October 2020 - IMRAN™

Kennedy Watched For Dolphins Nearby As K2 Went For A Swim In Tampa Bay Waters Mid-October 2020 - IMRAN™

I brought both my dogs to my neighborhood beach on the very first day I got them. Kennedy, a 4-5-year-old rescued German Shepherd in February 2019, was intrigued but did not fall in love with the water until later. K2, a 2-month-old German Shepherd puppy, came to this beach spot in April 2020, and I recorded the cutest video of his first time going in the water that day.

This was recorded exactly six months later, on October 15, 2020, during the pandemic era. K2 was growing fast and went for a swim. Kennedy was excitedly watching for the dolphins that had passed us a minute earlier.

In the second video, he too goes for a swim but is more interested in the dolphins than in swimming. Later on, multiple daily wades in Tampa Bay became Kennedy’s routine, while K2 only did regular swims in the swimming pool at home or in the bay if I tossed something for him to fetch.

Tampa Bay Residents Suffering From Florida Winter Weather - IMRAN™

This was the scene on a typical winter morning on Tampa Bay in February. I had not flown my DJI M3P drone in a while, and this seemed like the perfect day to do it. Notice the way we suffer such weather.... by going boating or to the beach, for example.

A Dog's Life: Dogs In Rearview Mirrors Are Closer (To Our Hearts) Than They Appear - IMRAN™

Kennedy, my precious German Shepherd Dog, taught me so much about life. 

We all have to face the last sunset of our lives one day. We can only hope to learn from our dogs. To remain stoic and brave, to retain our dignity and smile, and be grateful for all the adventures on the roads of life we shared. 

No matter how far back in the rearview mirrors of cars or memories of life our precious dogs seem, they are forever closer to our hearts than they appear, even when they are gone.

Dodged Dogged Double Vision Double Vision - IMRAN™

Exactly five years ago today. The forever smiling Kennedy in the back. Fast-growing K2 in front had been with us a full five weeks. He was just 13 weeks old in this photo. 

Both German Shepherds were waiting as I was bringing them a treat. They watched me take this photo of them with my own selfie reflection in the sliding door. 

The doubled title words play on there actually being a dual reflection in the double-paned glass. I had to use high contrast to avoid it looking too much like a shaky camera photo.
