Photo Walk Description

We will begin at the “Surrender” statue at Bayfront and walk along the water’s edge to Marina Jack. From there we will go up Main Street where there are lots of sidewalk restaurants and great shots for architectural shoots. We will go as far as Pineapple, loop down McAnish to S. Palm and back down Main back to the Bayfront. We will spend the second half of the walk in and around the Bayfront and Island Park. Lots of great waterfront, boats, birds, etc to shoot – even an eclectic mix of people. We will finish at a nearby restaurant (to be decided) for a relaxing lunch and cameraderie.

  • VERY IMPORTANT - TIME CORRECTION

    VERY IMPORTANT: the time on the website is incorrect – The walk is for 2 hours – it should read 9:45 not 10:45.
    We will meet at 9:45 begin at 10:00 (or sooner if everyone is there) and walk from 10 to 12. Lunch at 12:00 will be at OLeary’s Tiki Bar & Grill on the water at Bayfront
    Make sure: bring water so you don’t get dehydrated, comfortable shoes, a hat if you would like, your camera and an expectation of seeing things you’ve never seen before.
    (It is amazing how many things we pass by daily but never really SEE) http://tinyurl.com/SRQ-Photowalk pass on the link to friends Thanks.

  • Restaurant for lunch - hope you will all join us.

    We will finish off the walk with lunch at Oleary’s Tiki Bar and Grill. Choice of indoor (A/C) dining or outdoor under thatched roof on the water. Check out their menu offerings and other information at http://olearystikibar.com/

    Hi Mo,

    I’m just getting off work (oof!) but will try to be there tomorrow – not officially registering so that just in case I oversleep, I’m not taking up a slot someone else might like to use :)
