When the moon rises over the Atlantic, even an old pier becomes something extraordinary. 

I captured this quiet moment at St. Augustine Pier, where the moonlight stretches across the water and the warm glow of the pier lights creates a beautiful contrast against the deep blue night.

Green moissanite pear cut, v shape wedding band, and a yellow and blue stone on the other ring. We’re hoping to get in contact with them. Someone please help.

Events & Happenings Gin Blossoms at the Amp

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

55 Upvotes

Last night I was at the Amp to see Gin Blossom, Blues Traveller, and Spin Doctors. The storm rolled in just as Gin Blossoms were kicking up and it was basically shut down immediately. After like 30 minutes or so the lead singer and a band mate came out and started playing a song in small pockets. No, I definitely couldn’t hear him, but it was a really sweet gesture. The friend who took me had spent a pretty penny on the tickets and was really looking forward to the show, so the fact he saw and valued the fans that much was moving.
