Miami & The Beaches Photo Blog

Here's a "standard" view, nice but it's pale compared to a beautiful panorama.

Here’s where having that huge computer monitor is gonna make you say “Oh cool!”. Click on these panoramas and allow the image to popup – it will be HUGE but ever so worth the view, it’ll be like being there.

This one is a view from the Powell Bridge, looking northwest into Brickell. This is the shot from the bridge you cross heading south of Miami into Key Biscayne.

Now, even these little versions don’t do these panoramas justice, so there’s links at the bottom if you want to see gigantic versions, the links will pull up the image in a new window with no frills so you can view them as is.

Here’s another panorama from the Miami Seaplane Tours base at the east end of the bridge:

North of downtown Miami we get another great view of the Miami skyline, this time from the east end of the I-195 Bridge:

The classic Miami skyline:

Here are the really really large versions:

Panorama 2 Brickell

Panorama 3 Miami

Panorama 4 Miami

Now, I could have uploaded these to Wikipedia, or to some sort of locked down server of some kind, all in hopes of restricting their access – all of which would protect me nicely where copyright is concerned, but simultaneously reducing their visibility. I have photos on Wikipedia with “commons” licensing that people routinely ignore – all of which proves that people are going to steal what they will. All I ask is that if you use my work, simply put what are known as “attributions” to the photographer somewhere, like right under the photo “Photo by Tom Schaefer MiamiTom” and you will find me most appreciative of that.

Enjoy
