Sentinels – Fishing in the Fog

Monochrome, Fishing, Fishermen, Lake Michigan, Algoma, WI, B&W, Pier

Like sentinels with bayonets drawn, two fishermen are on high alert, ready for the bite.  These stalwart anglers are fishing for salmon in the early morning fog.  Their lures are plying the waters of Lake Michigan, off the pier at Algoma, Wisconsin.

Blind Side Attack

Bees, Thistle, Purple, Bee, Insect, Battle,

While working over a purple thistle, this bumble bee was attacked from behind by another competitor. The skirmish was short and seemed pretty insignificant. After bouncing off the backside of the busy bee, the aggressor simply flew away.  I’m guessing, it flew off to look for someone more its own size to pick on.

American Goldfinch Portrait

American Goldfinch, Female, Winter Plumage, Close-up

Isn’t she a beauty. This is a female American Goldfinch. She was kind enough to pose for this portrait on the suet feeder. She cam decked out in her Sunday best, winter plumage; not a feather out of place. I’m sure it was a cold day.

This is a photo I pulled up from the archives. It was taken a few years ago using my old Kodak Easyshare DX75909.  For a simple camera (compared to what I use today), it did some exceptional work.

Sara

pho·to·gen·ic   [foh-tuh-jen-ik]

adjective

1. forming an attractive subject for photography or having features that look well in a photograph: a photogenic face.

When you look up the word “photogenic” in the dictionary, you should see Sara’s photo.

No doubt about it.  Some people are photogenic.  I’m blessed to have a wife that is one of them.  However, she’s not always willing to jump in front of a clicking camera.  I usually have to do a little coaxing.

This was a shot from the Happy Birthday to Me session.

Industrial Strength Sunset

sunset, photograph, Smokestacks, smoke, Industrial

The sun sets on an industrial area of Green Bay, Wisconsin.

This was a scene that caught me by surprise…but not without a camera.  I was doing a little shopping at a Fleet Farm store in Green bay, Wisconsin.  As I left the store and stepped out into the parking lot, this sunset was beckoning me.  Of course, my camera was in the car.  I jumped in and drove to a less congested spot in the lot and took this photo – shooting across Interstate Highway 41.

Beautiful Branch – Autumn Display

Autumn, Leaves, Fall, Color, Red, Yellow, Orange, Maple, Tree, Branch

The beautiful colors of autumn are a testimony to God’s artistic creativity. What a blessing to behold the autumn leaves.

The leaves in our area have faded and stripped from the trees by gusty fall winds this last week. But we still have some dandy images.

A Lovely Bunch

Red Mums, Mums, Red, Flowers, Fall, Autumn

The beauty of Autumn’s colors are not limited to the trees.  I found these gorgeous mums blooming at the entrance of the Public Library in Algoma, Wisconsin.

Hats off to whoever tended the their small flower bed.  It was a continual source of blooming beauty all season.

Rare Treat

Ground Squirrel, Chipmunk

A ground squirrel finds a rare treat and makes quick work of the cheese popcorn dropped by a passerby.

This was taken at the the Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary in Green Bay, Wisconsin. If you’re into these little critters, there are an abundance of them along the pathways.
