Return to Harbor - Key Biscayne, Florida

Matt Tilghman

To me, few views are more peaceful than this one. This view is looking over Biscayne Bay, from Key Biscayne, Florida. My opinion probably has a lot to do with personal sentimentality. My extended family jointly owns a boat which is parked at this marina, and this is the view we always get after a nice evening sail. The peace and tranquility are therefore more than just visual. A few hours of wind on the face and salt in the hair does a lot to calm the soul. The alcohol which often accompanies the journey doesn’t hurt either. However, beyond my own personal attachment to this vista, I imagine the themes of sailboats, calm water, and a beautiful sunset hold a fairly universal appeal to the human spirit.

Story is sweet Matt! That is the most important part.

I think as for the shot, there isn't any separation between boats......and even the bushes....Long exposure can make it more tranquil as well.....a bird or two in the sky would make it more romantic. Cheers!
