These are the first ads I’ve created for use on boards and forums that have travel sections.  Each will have its own unique promo code.

To create the content, I will be combing the Keys to create images and write about the reefs and dive operators.  Keys Discounts has asked me to cover the diving from Key Largo to the Dry Tortugas.

Each content page will have an information section and images in a slide show format.

Keys Discounts is providing a link back to my web site so visitors can see more images, order ebooks online, book a photography class or book a day in the water for me to shoot their dives.

In mid-December I got my first preview of the live app (pre-release) and it is absolutely beautiful.  You will want this on your iPad or iPhone! Not only is the app easy to use, but the discounts and deals will be available from Key Largo to Key West.

I anticipate it will take me months to shoot all the images for the app and am looking forward to working with Keys Discounts and all the advertisers to make them look their best for the app.

Last week I got my discount package. This includes a card you take to the merchant, the booklet with the discounts places listed, a voucher card and a bonus drink card.  Very nice, and this program will be expanding as it circulates through the Keys.

The DIVE TIME columns are being posted as E-Books.

Get a free E-Books that contain all the images from the DIVE TIME columns. 

Each time I submit a column, I include a bunch of images for the editor to choose from for the print edition.  There is also a web version, for which only one image is selected.  The web versions are listed on the right side of this page in the  ”DIVE TIME columns” section.  The editor does not have the space available in the print edition to run all the images.  But I do in the E-book format.

When I write a column, there are images in my mind I want to see with the text.  To me it paints a more complete picture of the topic I’m writing about.  Since that won’t happen in the newsprint edition, I take all those images and make E-books.

All the E-books are FREE to download.

I hope you enjoy the E-book version of my columns as much as I enjoy writing them!
