Lighthouse
Lesser of Two Lights
Normally the sky in my sunrise photos are mostly hues of orange and red. This one was caught as the sun is just barely breaking the horizon – not up enough to color the whole sky, only the area nearest the horizon.
This is the lighthouse at Algoma, Wisconsin – located on the western shore of Lake Michigan.

Algoma Morning Scene
Man, I love mornings like this!
This is the lighthouse at Algoma, WI accentuated by the early light of the rising sun filtered through the clouds above a calm Lake Michigan.

Splendour Rising
Fishermen welcome the rising sun at the Kewaunee, Wisconsin pier and lighthouse. Kewaunee is located on the western shore of Lake Michigan.

Dramatic Calm
Lots of gold-tone goodness in this one. The sun has just come up over a calm Lake Michigan, but is being obscured and filtered by clouds. This, of course, is the lighthouse that stands ever vigilant at the mouth of the Algoma, Wisconsin harbor.
The soft tone of the sky relaxes you, but the clouds add a bit of dramatic tension at the same time.

Tidal Moon
A late-summer full moon rises over Lake Michigan, just behind the pier and lighthouse at the mouth of the Algoma, Wisconsin harbor.
I captured this image on September 30, 2012. I remember it was a late Sunday afternoon when the Green Bay Packers were playing the New Orleans Saints. It was a close game and I debated whether to miss it and hope for a good photo or just stay home and finish watching the game. I listened to it on the radio as I drove to Algoma, but I missed the end of the game because I was out near the beach taking photos.
When I got back to my van, I heard the Packers won 28 to 27. I hated to miss the game, but I’m glad I did. Full moon photos like this don’t come along every day.

Morning Rough – Kewaunee, WI Lighthouse
A view of the Kewaunee, Wisconsin lighthouse and pier just before the sun rises over a rough Lake Michigan. Kewaunee is located on the western shore of the lake.
Across the Harbor
A beautiful, calm morning in the harbor of Algoma, Wisconsin. Beyond the harbor, the sun is rising over Lake Michigan.
Those who follow my work know this lighthouse is one of my favorite subjects. This image was taken a few weeks ago. I’ve not had much success at catching a break when it comes to weather lately. I was there yesterday around sunrise and, again, the sky was dreary and gray.

Warming Up
The lighthouse and pier at Kewaunee, Wisconsin awaits the warming power of the sun as it begins its rise over Lake Michigan.
This photo was taken at the end of November, so it was a pretty cool morning and, as you can see by the rough seas on the right side of the pier, it was quite windy as well.

Star Power – Sunrise
The sun was powering through the clouds as it rose above Lake Michigan beyond the Algoma, Wisconsin lighthouse and harbor. This image was taken in late October.

Power Point Lighthouse Sunrise
This is a Saturday morning view from the beach in Kewaunee, Wisconsin.
This particular sunrise provided a couple of nice images. You can see an image I posted from the same morning – an entirely different look – by viewing Dawn Highlights.
I used a star filter to get the effect you see here. My favorite part of this image is the sun’s reflection off that first wave in the lower right part of the image.
