BIG TALBOT 16 © 2006

Jacksonsville, FL

This foggy photograph of Big Talbot Island was taken in the summer. The temperature was in the 90s and the humidity was unbearable. I had a very difficult time focusing the camera because my glasses would fog up, then my lens would fog, then my ground focusing glass would fog and by the time I finished wiping one clear, another would fog up! I finally had to guess at the focus and just take the picture and hope it would work. The island of Big Talbot is a state park located in the northeast corner of Florida near the Georgia border.
