Sunset in the Florida Keys for the rule of thirds challenge:
And for the effect of bokeh, a focal point leaping out from the blurred background, Larry lizard peaking out from a palmetto leaf at Magnolia Plantation, Charleston, South Carolina:

Beautiful Florida sunset! We just made reservations for next winter in the Keys. Ridiculous to have to plan so far ahead, but happy to snag a couple of weeks there. I always like photos with a focal point and blurred background — I didn’t know there was a cool word for it! Bokeh. I like that.

I never knew it had a name either!
When we first went to the Keys we had 3 days here and 4 days there without reservations. We had to keep on the move so we too booked ahead for the following winter.

Did the temps in Toronto raise a few degrees with the Florida sunset?

Yes – enough to make it start snowing again. Mother Nature has a lot of explaining to do about this winter. She’s been in a grouchy, hostile mood since Christmas
