If you visit any of the popular beach resorts and stay a few nights, you will probably stay in a condo. I’ve been fortunate to stay in a few in Florida over the years and all have been pretty nice. The higher view is really great, plus you’re above the noise of the crowds, but not too high that you don’t hear the surf, if you step out on the balcony.

This was my last evening in Pensacola last year. I had scouted this location earlier in the day, but at dusk, it didn’t light up as much in the low light as I had hoped. In October, many of the buildings have fewer occupants, leaving the rooms dark. So I had to settle for a sunset image.

It was from here that I saw the vantage point for this really nice Pensacola Beach Skyline image. So what turned out okay, turned out even better later. I got the thought of this location from one of my first blog photos in Houston I called Sunset Between the Towers.
