When The Morning Comes

Published July 24, 2018 | By Bill

As it rises, the sun illuminates and colorfully accentuates the clouds and contrails behind the Algoma, Wisconsin lighthouse and pier. Algoma is located on the western shore of Lake Michigan.

This was taken a couple of years ago. This is actually a panorama image – where I joined three separate image together to get a wider, more detailed view.

These are the mornings that make getting up before sunrise and driving to your destination worth the effort.

One Minute Sunset – 07-30-17

Published September 3, 2017 | By Bill

This is a time-lapse video of a July sunset at our home in rural Kewaunee County, WI. This compresses about an hour of time into a minute.

Be sure to watch long enough to see the contrails (A trail of condensed water from aircraft at high altitude, seen as a white streak against the sky.) There are three of them. It is easy to miss the first one. It shows up at about 27-seconds in as a light line coming in from the right side of the tree. The other two you won’t miss at 34 and 42 seconds. They come from the top of the frame and are prominent in the scene.

For the best viewing experience, you’ll want to watch this video at full-screen and high definition. To do so, click the controls in the bottom right corner of the video frame.
