Started off the day with a work visit to the C.H. Corn Hydroelectric Station in western Leon County. This dam is the source of Lake Talquin. An enormous volume of water was passing through the dam as a result of the heavy rainfall lately.

Later in the afternoon I had a visit from a friend in the tree outside of my window at the office.

Today’s perambulations took me from the shores of Lake Talquin, where the wind bringing in the next layer of December cloud cover whipped the water to a hard chop–which is the only way I’ve ever seen Lake Talquin, to be honest–to the crisp winter understory of the Lake Talquin State Forest, where the pines are awaiting the distant spring in silent resignation. State Road 267 then carried me north to Quincy, where the clouds ruined my original plan (I’ll be back another day) but cleared enough for me to grab a few shots of a beautifully-restored Gulf Station on the Old Spanish Trail, US 90. A couple shots in Tallahassee caught my eye in the late afternoon and evening.

There are many more photos from Sarasota to come, but I wanted to share this one immediately. Lightning out on the Gulf of Mexico, looking southwest across Sarasota Bay.

I’ve been taking time away from the internet the past few weeks. Here’s a picture of Lake Hall at Maclay Gardens in Tallahassee on a gray spring morning to make up for the absence.
