These shutterbugs try to celebrate Photo Month by trying to figure out how to operate a camera.
A neat place to get a camera and more accessories than you can imagine is Colonial Photo and Hobby in Orlando.
Click here and learn more: https://www.facebook.com/ColonialPhotoHobby?fref=photo
The building Colonial Photo is in was originally a Publix. Another great reason to visit the store is to get the feel of what it was like to be in an early Publix! It’s almost hard to imagine a grocery store being so small..

This was the new Atlantic Coast Line railroad depot that opened in 1906. The depot was met with complaints. This was urged on, as has always been the case by the constantly disgruntled St. Petersburg Times (Now Tampa Bay Times). The newspaper had, months before the opening, published an editorial about their view that the new depot being built was not up to the paper’s standards and that the “company should have treated us better as they had always promised to do, but – you know how big corporations are.” This riled the public that “We deserve better than this!”
The depot looks pretty nice to me.
Ah, the power of the press.
This photo is from ‘Yesterday’s St Petersburg’ by Hampton Dunn.

Not only is this piece of furniture not avaible anymore,
The books inside aren’t around either.
Or the people who might read them.
My, how our living areas have changed.
