Looks very confining... How's the fishing?

@Earnest: Actually didn't do any fishing there. I believe this photo was taken the first day I was there and I was just walking the grounds of the development I was staying at. Tied to the pier's posts you could see a lot of crab traps which had a few critters in them.

I am surprised not to see anybody fishing... Looks like a nice place!

It was actually a nice place for "time outs", particularly in the mornings.

Oh, I love this ...it takes the eye right out to the water. Wonderful perspective.

This is so "real Florida" looking. And to think it's all right here in my "backyard"... Holmes Beach is just about a 10-15 minutes drive from my front door.

I can't tell from the picture how long this thing is :-P
I'm just curious, whether the effect would even be higher without the shadow.

Beautiful, crisp image. Very inviting to just step onto the pier the way you've framed the shot.

I almost missed the bird at the top right corner of this picture. And yes, good perspective.
