Here is a drone photo I took a couple of years ago while the Carnival Glory was docked in Jamaica. I love the color of the Caribbean Sea.
Mardi Gras Dining Room
Sunday architectural photo for you. This is the main dining room on the Carnival Mardi Gras cruise ship.
Mardi Gras Conference Room
Why don’t I have a conference like this at work? Probably because I don’t work on a cruise ship…. But I liked this set up and the interior designer has my respect. This room is used as a universal space outside the main dining room on the Carnival Mardi Gras
CCL Mardi Gras
Here is another photo from our time on the Carnival Mardi Gras. As you can tell, I captured this at sunrise. Just me and a lone swimmer.
Dream On The Move
During our last cruise on the Carnival Mardi Gras, I had an opportunity to get some drone footage and photos of the Carnival Dream while it was coming into port. I don’t know if the ship knew I was flying around it with the drone, but I got some great content. Here is a photo I took when I was done and the ship was sailing away from me.
Mardi Gras Bar
MJ and I had a chance to experience the relatively new Carnival Mardi Gras cruise ship. As you can imagine, it’s been a while since we’ve been on a cruise boat. Like my past practice, I got up very early one morning to photograph the ship while everyone else slept. This is one of many bars on the ship.
NOLA Time Lapse
Before the world fell apart, MJ and I went on a cruise out of New Orleans. I captured this time lapse video from our cruise ship balcony as the ship left the Port of New Orleans.
Time Lapse from Carnival Glory
I took this time lapse with 1,891 photos put together to create this video. I used a DJI Pocket Osmo strapped to the cabin balcony railing using my belt to hold it place. I didn’t want it to fall overboard, so my belt did double duty. Held my pants up and secured the Pocket Osmo to the ship railing.
The beginning of the video shows the beautiful Bonaire sunset, but shortly afterward you see the storm come in with a very dark dramatic looking sky and at the very end you can see the ship leave port with the island disappearing into the distance.
Glory Dusk
Another short blog post for you tonight. Here is a photo I took on the Carnival Glory at dusk. I love the blue colors on the deck and the orange colors in the background just after sunset. This was also taken in Montego Bay Jamaica.

Jamaican Sunset
I took this from our cabin balcony while we (Carnival Glory) were docked in Montego Bay Jamaica. Pretty hard to beat this setting!!

Montego Bay
We had a great time sailing and snorkeling around Montego Bay, Jamaica. We didn’t see much of the rest of the island, but this spot was great. I captured the Carnival Glory in the marina with my drone before we left for the next stop.

Travel Sunrise
I scrolled through numerous photos in my archive tonight looking for something to post. I came across this photo I took while on one of our cruises. Per my normal process, I was up before 99% of the passengers trying to capture the ultimate sunrise photo. I don’t think photo falls into the ultimate photo category, but I like it a bunch.

Vista Lobby
How about this resort lobby? Admittedly, this isn’t a typical hotel lobby. In fact, it isn’t a “hotel” at all. This is the lobby of the Carnival Vista cruise ship, which is a floating hotel/resort. We were on its maiden voyage and I took this on day two. Pretty cool spot!!

Vista
Wow, the weekend can’t come soon enough at this point. Nothing dramatic has happened this week, I’m just ready for the weekend. Therefore, I looked through some of my photos for a happy memory….. and I came across this beauty. I can remember standing on the Carnival Vista just after sunrise taking this photo. There were probably only 20 people up on the deck at the time and it felt like I had the entire ship to myself. Great moment!!

Splendor Lobby
I have another cruise ship photo for you today. I realize I posted one for you on April 25, but I don’t care. This is the lobby of Carnival Splendor at around 530am in the morning…. You know why I took this photo at that time of the day. Like many of the Carnival cruise ships, this one has decoration that is a little over the top. We had a few beverages at this bar during our trip. Good times.

Sunrise Splendor
We had our annual spring cruise recently. This year we traveled on the Carnival Splendor out of Long Beach California. Typical of my travel plans, I got up early to capture the sunrise, which I don’t like to do when I’m at home. But I’ve done this dozens of times on past Carnival cruises and on non-cruise trips, so I was attempting to capture something unique…something I haven’t captured in the past. So I went towards the front the ship on the deck above the Bridge and captured this photo looking towards the stern of the ship.

Blue Iguana Tequila Bar
I honestly don’t remember which Carnival Cruise ship this photo is from. I’ve had this photo sitting on my hard drive for a while just waiting to share it with you some day. Well, today is the day. Believe it or not, I didn’t have a drink at this spot. But I liked the looks and design of this spot.

Seaside Theatre
I hope you’re having a nice and warm Sunday. It is still freezing in my area, which has me thinking about warmer times/experiences. Today’s photo is from our European cruise on the Carnival Vista. Per my normal routine, I got up extremely early to capture this photo without other tourists in the way. I loved the colors in this part of the ship.

Elation
I’m posting this photo for my friend David. He asked me to keeping posting drone photos…. I don’t know why…. Or maybe I do. Regardless, this is the Carnival Elation from above while it was anchored in the Bahamas.
