Canon PowerShot SX260 HS; 1/1250s, f/5.0, ISO 100, focal length 29.8mm; AUTO setting

This is a small section of an old boat, the Miss Clarabelle, that sits at the Cedar Key Museum State Park in Cedar Key, Florida. It reminds me of a world map, especially North and South America, center left. This is not a black and white image.

Having lived most of my life in the northeast U.S., I am enjoying retired life in sunny Florida. I enjoy photographing many different kinds of things, but especially flowers and animals, including the beautiful birds found here in Florida. I am currently using a Canon EOS Rebel XSi/450D camera, a Canon 55-250 mm telescopic zoom lens, and a Sony P10 Cyber-shot digital camera. My newest acquisition is a Canon PowerShot SX260 HS, a point and shoot which I will be carrying in my purse.
