1 Minute Atlantic Ocean Addiction Fix At Fort Lauderdale Florida - IMRAN™
1 Minute Atlantic Ocean Addiction Fix At Fort Lauderdale Florida - IMRAN™
In less than a minute, you can enjoy the beautiful colors that make any ocean, particularly the Atlantic Ocean, especially in Florida, such a powerful and emotive experience. Handheld Nikon D850 DSLR video shot from my 10th-floor hotel room across a wide expanse of sand, roads, and hotel front space, but you can see the footprints in the sand!

A Bad Moon Rising, Howling Wolves Still At The Door Outside. Hope Inside, Perseverance Forever
A full moon is always a sight to behold. Rising up just above the treetops to the side of my home, it showed its magical powers while the sky was not yet dark. Walking around the boardwalk in East Patchogue, and later at Bellport Dock, the beach was drowning in the passionate fury of a lunar high tide pushed on by the inspiring wind.
And the question became, was this a Bad Moon Rising, or an indication of great aspirations for the future. Only time, and the tides of time, will tell. Bad news and troubles continue to howl at my door. But I know only my faith and perseverance are the magic bullets.
PS No howling wolves were hurt in the making of this photograph.

Stairway To Heaven, Walkway To The Sun
By Imran Anwar
The bright heavy setting sun on June 14, 2009 seemed floating in air. It sat just near the end of the bowardwalk, at Smith Point Park beach, just beyond the signs for the TWA Flight 800 Memorial, like an easy stairway to heaven.
Here we are on earth, walking or flying, thinking we own it, yet we are so insignificant.
One tiny wobble of that white orb in the sky and we are all history. Even if it remains perfectly aligned forever, we are certain to be history.
So many voices that had walked these paths, these stairways, before us. All gone, as we one day will. Some of them are remembered, many forgotten; lost, first to memories, then to history, and then to eternity. Would we be remembered? And, why?
Theres a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking
It seemed so easy to reach, yet so far away. It felt burning hot in a cold blue sky.
It inspired me to experiment with this picture and the words of Stairway To Heaven just seemed so appropriate....
It made me wonder, it makes me wonder, and it will always make me wonder.
What about you?

Bird(s) On A Wire, Not Ducks In A Row
I flew back to New York on Valentine's Day, 2009. After getting home, I drove to the dock near my home to catch these birds on a wire, sitting like ducks in a row, against the backdrop of a pink dusk and deep gentle blue sky. Taken with my pocket Nikon S6.
Do check the previous amazing shot in the photostream.

Just Another Reason I Love Miami
Leaving Miami for Bahamas & US Virgin Islands 7-Day Cruise Norwegian Dawn 20080406 - 3 - IMRAN™, originally uploaded by ImranAnwar.
I know it's extremely aggravating when people expect you to speak Spanish instead of English in Miami. And, the looney drivers in Miami remind me of driving in Pakistan. But, when you see the colors of the sky and water there - it's easy to see one of the many reasons I love Miami.
