Thoughts From an Island Photographer

Happy Monday!

This week’s photos are all photos our readers have requested. So, if you have a favorite slice of St. John life you’d like to see pictured here, just -e-mail us and we’ll include it in an upcoming Photo Monday.

First up this week is Caneel Bay. We were asked to capture the Ruins, the Equator Room, Turtle Point,  and the boat dock all in one photo.

Yes – Caneel Bay Resort is a beautiful sight even on a hazy day. Notice how the island has gotten so green lately! 

The flamboyant treese are coming into full bloom and we admit this photo is just a little teaser with more photos to come. But we didn’t want to disappoint those who’ve asked about them recently because Flamboyants are the harbinger of summer here in the islands.

Someone pointed out to us that no one ever takes a photo of Maho Bay showing the old building and picnic area. It is rumored that the VI Nationatl Park will be making improvements here in the future, so archive this photo for fond memories.

Yes, you can catch a photo of a mongoose standing still.  They are cute little devils, aren’t they? 

We admit, we almost didn’t include this last photo this week. But, who are we to ignore our fans?  

Yes, this is the beautiful villa on St. John where the Housewifes of New York stayed during their recent vacation, taken from a relatively new well-marked overlook on the North Shore Road.  

Hmm… what would you like to see photos of?

Until later,
