We stopped at Old Bahia Bridge, my husband saw this lizard on the edge and I was able to lean over and take pictures.

Alligators
We got very lucky, we took a air boat ride in the everglades and in the natural habitat we spotted several alligators, one lifted its head right next to the boat and me- I kind of jumped a bit… but I was also able to spot this alligator with a baby on on it. Experience to remember. 
A snowy egret
This snowy egret was enjoying the breeze at Naples pier.

Frost art by Nature
I so enjoyed taking these photos, looking at the windows full of frost flowers, trees, japanese art… and trying to find the small details that appealed to my sense of beauty, capture them. Here is the last set for now

Hvitträsk #2
Hvitträsk was designed to be a studio home for the members of the Finnish architecture firm Gesellius, Lindgren, and Saarinen. It later became the private residence of Eliel Saarinen. It is located about 30 kilometers (19 mi) west of Helsinki in Kirkkonummi, Finland. These photos are from the grounds of Hvitträsk and the lake was now white 🙂
.[H]vitträsk literally means White Lake
