Friends, followers and my ocean family: Blue Heron Bridge needs our help - please read and consider taking action!
This was one of my very first seahorse encounters, captured with my first Olympus underwater camera setup three years ago. It may not be my strongest photograph anymore, but like so many images I’ve created at the bridge, it holds a special place in my heart.
Blue Heron Bridge is where I fell in love with underwater photography, and it’s still where I return to practice, experiment, and continue refining my craft. It’s also where countless divers, snorkelers, photographers, and ocean lovers discover just how incredible South Florida’s underwater world can be.
Places like Blue Heron Bridge remind us that we don’t have to travel halfway around the world to experience something wild and awe-inspiring. They inspire curiosity, foster a deeper appreciation for our oceans, and create lifelong advocates for marine conservation.
If Blue Heron Bridge means something to you too, I’ve linked a petition in my bio for you to review. It addresses concerns about how increased boat traffic and proposed waterfront development will affect the marine ecosystem that makes this place so extraordinary. No matter where you live in the world, if you believe places like this deserve thoughtful stewardship—I encourage you to take a few minutes to learn more about the proposal and consider signing the petition.
These underwater spaces are among South Florida’s greatest treasures. Once the health of an ecosystem is diminished, restoring it is never easy, and sometimes it’s lost forever. I hope future generations have the same opportunity to experience the wonder that so many of us have found beneath this incredible bridge. 🌊💙
