Waiting

My husband and I were waiting for our plane at the Miami airport. In the end it would be delayed which resulted in a missed connection and then due to the blizzard that paralyzed the east coast we spent three hellish days in Montreal trying to get home. However, at the time of this photo we didn't know this.

I was caught by how the planes were framed by the window and that there was a person waiting. I knew the image I wanted but had to be careful- first there was the timing to frame the plane. It's not like they would repeat it for me. :). Second, security gets a little antsy when they don't understand what the person with the camera is doing. And the last thing you want to do is to attract airport security. However, a bit of luck and timing and I got what I wanted- a photo that tells a story.

Boats

Last week my husband and I went on a cruise. It was our first one. I did enjoy it. Mostly I loved the warm weather. This winter has been particularly harsh so it was nice to feel the warmth of the sun and smell growing things.

I became fascinated by the ships themselves. they are so huge.
Waiting inside the terminal:


At dock in Cozumel- I wanted to show the scale and use the closer boat for framing:




Walking back 

Now this shows the scale compared to the people:
