Southernmost Point in the Continental US marker - Key West, Florida

Located at the corner of South Street and Whitehead Street, Key West's most iconic landmark draws crowds that stand in line for a postcard-like picture with the famous yellow, red, and black painted buoy. Built in 1983, the buoy not only represents the southernmost location in the continental United States but also its close proximity to Havana, Cuba only 90 miles away.

Three bracketed photos were taken with a handheld Nikon D7200 and combined with Photomatix Pro to create this HDR image. Additional adjustments were made in Photoshop CS6.

"For I know the plans I have for you", declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~Jeremiah 29:11
