Santa Whale

Stuck at home recovering from surgery I missed the Venice Christmas Boat Parade this year, so I thought I'd share a photo from years past.  I'm sure everyone who went had a whale of a good time. I will try to get some current Christmas boat photos around the yacht club.

Waiting to Start

This months theme in the City Daily Photo community is "waiting".  The other night at the Venice Christmas Parade I walked through much of the staging area where units wait their turn to start down the parade route.  That is where I got this shot of people waiting on their float, I thought it fit both the theme day and the holiday season perfectly.

Christmas Parade

The largest Christmas Parade in Florida is right here in Venice.  As you can till it's after dark with lots of light, rather difficult to shoot with my camera but I got some worthwhile images that I will share over the next few weeks.  I highly recommend the parade if you are in the Venice area on Thanksgiving weekend in the future.
