Overnight, we received a nice coating of sleet along the Atlantic coast in extreme Northeast Florida (Amelia Island). With the surface temperature just above freezing, the roads are wet but not iced over. It’s pretty cool, though.

A slightly better exposure.The World-famous Palace Saloon, Fernandina Beach Historic District.
Processing and scans were done by The Darkroom at medium resolution. The images below I used a 625A 1.5v battery which, on average made the camera’s meter two stops off.

A collection of images of the sky over Amelia Island, Florida. My son, Tim, captured the last photo on his phone (I think it’s the best). Do you have a favorite? Let me know. Thanks.

I spent part of my Saturday near the Fernandina Beach Municipal Airpot, photographing birds, the salt marsh, and distant bridges. I couldn’t pass up the chance to grab a few shots of airplanes passing overhead.
