Silhouette
Kewaunee Pier Silhouette
Fishermen gathering on the pier at Kewaunee, Wisconsin is a common scene each fall. This was an early morning shot, just after sunrise. The sun is rising above Lake Michigan, directly behind the lighthouse. This shot was taken from the beach.

Sunrise Pier Fishermen
The Kewaunee Lighthouse is situated at the end of a very long pier that stretches out into Lake Michigan. It is a very popular spot for fishermen. Behind these group of early morning anglers, the powerful sun begins its ascent.
If you look closely, you’ll notice a small boat in the very bottom right corner.

Morning Lace
Bright sunlight, muted by an early morning fog, created a nice silhouette effect on a stand of Queen Anne’s Lace. If you look closely, you can see strands of spider web stretched between the flower stems.
This image may seem familiar. It’s a cropped version of the photo I posted on August 2nd, entitled Queen’s Morning.

Queen’s Morning
Yesterday morning started with a light blanket of fog. As the sun pushed it’s way up through the foggy horizon, it created a nice silhouette of some Queen Anne’s Lace that grows at the edge of the field of oats that is next to lawn of our country home.

Fishing Report
I was on the beach at Kewaunee, Wisconsin, taking photos of the lighthouse at sunrise. (Watch for that photo to be posted soon.)
I noticed the sun beginning to rise over the pier and started to take photos of it. Then I noticed two people walking along the pier, toward the sun, one from each direction. The two met and began talking. I moved my camera to frame the two in the orb of light from the rising sun behind them.
The two were fisherman – you can see one with a landing net and rod in his hands. I imagine they were discussing the recent fishing activity on the pier, like if any had been caught this morning, what they were biting on, how big they were…etc.

Wisps of Light
I’ve taken a lot of photos of the Kewaunee lighthouse, but none like this. This was a pre-sunrise shot focusing on the light of the lighthouse. The morning sky provided a dramatic background.
I have another, similar shot where the lighthouse isn’t all shadow. I’ll post it in a couple of days.
To get a better view of the lens on that light, click the photo. Feel free to share with friends.
