This photo by Times photojournalist Scott Keeler, made during a session of the Masters Swimming program at the North Shore Aquatic Complex in St. Petersburg last Tuesday, reminds us of the old saying, "bad weather makes for good pictures."
 
With cold weather expected in the Tampa Bay area again early next week, keep your camera handy and your eyes open for interesting photo opportunities.  If you make an image you'd like to share, we'd love to see it.  Visit our community gallery to submit a photo.

Photographing the Space Shuttle launch
 
launch_300.jpg 
Watching a space shuttle launch is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, even if it is from afar. It’s not just the moment of witnessing history unfold and feeling the rumble caused from the shuttle’s liftoff, it’s also the anticipation, the fingers-crossed feeling that the launch won’t be scrubbed and the effort to travel to Florida’s east coast wasn’t in vein. You’ll end up making wonderful memories from the entire experience of traveling, waiting and meeting the people who have come so far—as far as Australia and England in some cases. If you do make the trek to the Kennedy Space Center for the last two launches, here are a few tips on where to go for the best vantage point.
