We never shot much “cheesecake" at the Gardens, but we did shoot a LOT of "skiscake." P😁😎😁. Photo editors in the frozen Northern loved both skiing and skiscake photos, and of course, the more they published the more we shot.

Framed by Palm Branches, a Beautiful Skier at Cypress Gardens. She was Pope's darlyn, Kathy Darlyn that is, super-model and outstanding skier. Photo editors in the cold northern reaches loved photos like this in the middle of the winter... #waterskiing #showskiing #swivelskiing #showskilife #lifeonthewater #cypressgardens #classicphotography #skiscake #loveblackandwhite https://www.instagram.com/p/CFAr8GlB7Hd/?igshid=1kdevaabncwvg

While I'm sure everyone is remembering to be safe about he Covid virus, just a reminder to be sure to wear your sunglasses whether upside-down or right-side up, esp. when out on the water and beaches where reflected light gives a double dose of bright. #waterskiing #showskiing #skiscake #popesbeach #cypressgardens #lifeonthewater #showskilife #waterski100 #classicphotography #loveblackandwhite (at Cypress Gardens, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB6NjG7hdEd/?igshid=c64v1e8o8715

The Amazing Photographers of Cypress Gardens. Got to hand it to - it’s either Dennis Hallinan or Jerry Imber (left) - for having the moxie to stand on top of that platform with no protective rails and whoever that is sitting on the end of the bridge on the picture boat with "Hadacol" driving. YIKES!!! Looks like the 2nd iteration of the Miss Cover Girl photo boat. Whatever it takes to "get the shot." #waterskiing #showskiing #skiscake #aquamaids #cypressgardens #classicphotography #showskilife #lifeonthewater (at Cypress Gardens, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAYDtI5BIg0/?igshid=13zp91gygeej2

The Beautiful Skiers of Cypress Gardens. A round of applause for the CG photographers and skiers for getting classic water ski ballet shots like this. And esp. to the "Swami of the Swamp," Dick Pope, Sr., for having the vision to get the Meloon family to build a boat, in this case Miss Cover Girl IV, specifically to serve as a photographic platform for water skiing. #cypressgardens #waterskiing #showskiing #waterskiballet #showskilife #lifeonthewater #wearewaterskiing #skiscake #classicphotography #loveblackandwhite (at Cypress Gardens, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_aBE_zpyxk/?igshid=1epj2kwmc9z2k

🎼 "Flying through the air with the greatest of ease, the daring young girl on the long pair of skis. 🎶 ♬ – The Beautiful Skiers of Cypress Gardens, Martha Mitchell and her doppelganger, Martha Mitchell. Yes, the jump is well hidden in the trees and if you look close you can see the world's most photographed boathouse just above the boat wake on the far left... #waterskiing #showskiing #waterskijumping #cypressgardens #skiscake #wearewaterski #loveblackandwhite #classicphotography #showskilife #lifeonthewater (at Cypress Gardens, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_VC6d6J0Yd/?igshid=1231vvaf94qpk

Water Ski Royalty! She makes it look so easy! Unlike doing the Jitterbug dance which requires LOTS of high energy movement, riding the Jitterboard is as easy as putting a smile on your face! That's Cypress Gardens skier Nance Stilly-Hains. Her Father-in-law started the American Water Ski Association in 1939 and ran it from his Chicago office for several years. #waterskiing #showskiing #jitterboard #showskilife #lifeonthewater #cypressgardens #skiscake #waterski100 #loveblackandwhite (at Cypress Gardens, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-hgGG3hyVT/?igshid=139cfbh0cg8fx
