Walking back from breakfast to my room at the Dolphin Resort last Fall, I stopped and watched the comings and goings of the Friendship boats. It was a typical beautiful day in central Florida filled with warm sunshine and blue skies. Something living in the northeastern United States, as I do, is still months away. I know I am a bit weary of this year’s winter and wanted to remind myself it will get better or, at least, get me to start planning my next trip to Walt Disney World.

Nikon D700/28-300VR, 1/125s, f/16, ISO 450, EV +0.3, 28mm focal length.
Remember, to get sharp focus from the front to back in your photographs, use a small aperture like I did here. f/16 or f/22 is usually good enough. If you have Scenes to choose from on your camera, select the Landscape scene to get this kind of result.
