Thanks to the time change, after I got off work on Friday I was able to run out to Everglades National Park to explore a trail I had not been to in some time. Unfortunately, the weather conditions were not ideal for photography, very overcast and cloudy. This made bird in flight and wildlife action shots very difficult. Also, my primary purpose was to capture a sunset and the storm clouds were blocking the sun completely.
The bright side to the bad conditions is that it made me slow down and look hard for photography subjects. I managed a few decent shots as a result. My favorite was a crazy flower I found growing on the side of the trail. I had never seen anything like it before and it kept me entertained for a little while. In the end I did get an ok sunset shot with lots of color but it was not what I was looking for out of that particular venue. The sun in the photo is off he frame to the right and behind a dark storm cloud. I just captured the side lighting from it.
