This sunset picture was taken by the bay near my house. It's a little out of focus, but the view is still beautiful.

These images are from the New College campus which is located next to the Ringling Museum of Art. Some of the structures were built at time the Ringlings lived in Sarasota.

The following images are at the Ringling Museum. I did not go inside for any of these. You can see these just driving or walking by. There are more interesting images, but I don't want to bore you all.

The Ringling School of Art and Design has installed these sculptures, probably senior projects.

These are scenes along Tamiami Trail near downtown Sarasota. The bridge connects Sarasota with Bird Key and Longboat Key.

This set of sculptures are made up of geometric shapes. My daughter and I always take their stance as we pass them, at least for a moment. The companion piece is of one person raising hands in joy...at least we think it must be joy.

The patterns of the canvas across the roof is interesting.

Don't forget to Google the Sunshine Skyway Bridge!!! It is now named the Bob Graham Skyway bridge.
