The Window to Key West.
What does one do when there are no new pics to share? Simple! Dig into the old collection, re-live the times well spent in past and share them here :)
This was the view from the rear window of Key West Light House that gave a glimpse, almost like a teaser, of the beauty that's gonna unfold before us as we schlep ourselves through 88 steps to reach the top. They are pretty considerate folks out there: you get to sport a badge after you have climbed the steps, to announce your achievement to the world :D
And below is one of the several spectacular views of the island from the top. I love the blue ocean merging with the sky in the backdrop. Have a great weekend!!! :)

Nice shots, Moi! Happy Weekend!
Key West looks like an amazing place. Like your shots
Moi, I am sitting here with rain coming down and leaves changing color. Your pictures are a total 180 degrees from my current conditions - such a wild difference :) Your first picture makes me want to be a lighthouse keeper!
The colors are so crisp - beautiful!
Yup. on a day when NYC is humid and rainy, you choose to show us how good life can be down south.
Damn it, why aren't all the research labs located in Key West???
I have that movie on DVD ;)
The bottom image almost looks like "the Truman Show" ;)
Terrific shots and it looks like a magical place to visit.
Here it can't decide what it wants to do...spritz rain, blow a little wind or just have a grey sky.
Hope you have a good weekend.
Very nice. I like the bottom photo a lot.
I can tell the houses are quite large and colourful. Love the blue sky!
By the way, you've been tagged! Please go to Norwich Daily Photo to see the rules posted today, 20 October.

Thanks for the "welcome back." It's good to be back!
I've always wanted to visit Key West; your photos make me want to go more than ever. Gorgeous!
do you say abra-cadabra before clicking, they are magical! that house is so white.
Fine place , but a little too much people for me.. :-)Have a great week end too!
I like both shots a lot. The top one for the composition with the window and the outside scene, but the bottom one is hard to beat because of the beauty. I love the colors of the houses and on out to the ocean and sky.
I really like how the sky just pops right out of the window. Nice use of light on the door!
Hi Moi,
I've visited Key West twice and enjoyed walking and walking and walking (and shopping and eating and drinking) both times very much. It's time for me to return. Past time, actually.
I have not read The Kite Runner yet though I have it, waiting for me. Thanks for reminding me.
Great shots, Moi, nice & bright colors & great composition.
I enlarged the bottom shot but can't see any cats :)
Wow...what an awesome view!
love your photos.. words ... and the honesty :)
photographs are also windows of memories...
and i love wild flowers, too, as well as the song wildflower.
Hi Moi:)
Nice shot and great view through the window to the Keywest, we've been a while ago in Florida too, did not visit the key west, it was too busy.... Thnals for your view!
HI!:) Missed you,
I am back from my short trip to South of Italy, thanks for 'not forgetting me' I posted an overview of pictures from my holiday , soon more... Have a great sunday!!!
Greetings JoAnn
Nice shots Moi, Key West seems like a place unlike any other. Surrounded by water and so vulnerable, yet it thrives.
You have wonderful treasures in your archives! Makes me want to schlep myselve up to that top view.
Hi again, Moi, you can reach me at kabnitzatsbcglobaldotnet
nice view ;]
That top shot looks like one of those Renaissance paintings on perspective.
Thanks, Moi, for stopping by and for your kind words on my site

Nice crisp colors...
Love both the images :)
WoW...some beautifully captured & composed shots with lovely lighting & the colours...Excellent!
Lovely! Everyone always says that Key West is so nice. I'd love to visit there one day. Your photos make it look very lush and green!
psst psst..
digging is my secret too.. :D
and key west is beutiful!
Thanks for your concern about the California fires.
Fortunately they are not any where near us, but unfortunate for those in Southern California. The Santa Anna winds are so dry and fierce that they drive the fire totally out of control. Much of the terrain where the fires are going is very rugged and difficult to fight. So many people having to be evacuated. Its really scary.
Thanks for your thoughts for fire can happen anywhere.
I've never been to the Keys. This looks so beautiful.
Nice place huh, you can "point and shoot" anywhere there that it will certainly turn out beautifully!
I expected Jimmy Stewart and Grace Kelly...but am not disappointed ;-)
Thanks for sharing the "Garment" story! Discovered Gibran a while back and triple love his nature quotes...
funny.... just as i was leaving a comment here, i got a comment from you! we're thinking of each other at the same time! :)
i love the first pic.... the whitewashed window and the view... nice framing! i'll be counting down the days with ya, friend! :)
Perfect exposure. QUite surprising that in a shot with such varied lights nothing is over or under exposed.
Key West is one of the places I would like to visit, another is Marrakech and....
You did give me a wonderful idea - what to do when you've no new photos to post. I will dig through my current photos and put one up so I won't be missing a day.
Thanks!! :)
Oh my Gosh! I have that very same top picture from my travels there!
Great minds think alike, eh?
