A very colorful lifeguard tower on South Beach in Miami makes a nice contrast against the turquoise water. It is interesting to note that these are built on skids--I guess so that they can be moved if necessary. Also, they are marked with the street number--in this case, 10th Street. The flags indicate beach conditions--in this case, red for high winds and the purple stands for dangerous marine life (jellyfish).

This is a 8 or 9-foot long male alligator in the Florida Everglades.

I think someone has a spelling (or translation) problem here! This image was taken in Little Havana in Miami, FL.

This is a small plant that was growing from a handful of seaweed that washed up on the beach on Fort Lauderdale, FL. The sea and the stormy skies form the background for this image.
