23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Driftwood Sunrise from Matanzas Inlet, Florida
This photo was taken from a spot called Rattlesnake Island which has a great view of the A1A bridge that crosses the scenic inlet to the Atlantic Ocean. The beach from where the photo was taken is home to a number of large driftwood trees probably transported there by high water from hurricanes.
