It was mid-July and we were starting to get regular afternoon storms. I went out for a late afternoon walk at the Safety Harbor fishing pier, hoping to see some lightning or a rainbow. I could see the rain moving across the northern part of the bay.

The sun was trying to peak out as I walked around the park next to the fishing pier.

There are lots of mangrove crabs along the boardwalk but they are usually skittish. This one let me take a picture with my phone.

Marvelous photography!
Great capture.
Lucky the storms passed by. Beautiful skies!
WOW, so happy to see ES #WW image here. Thanks for participating and sharing your post at #52 #WW (Words welcome). See you at #53
Some beautiful photos. I love when there is weather on the coast you can see rain moving.
What a beautiful area.
Worth a Thousand Words
Beautiful storm clouds–glad you did not get rained on. The flowers and bird of paradise flowers are beautiful!
Beautiful pictures, as always.
We had a lot of relatives in town this spring and we went to Safety Harbor quite a bit. I hear either from you or others that the pier is no more. Ditto Dunedin Pier.
The Largo Nature Preserve is open. Any time you wanna meet up, let me know. The FL Botanical Garden opened Wednesday.
