These images are some of my earliest, serious photographic attempts to capture of one of my favorite subjects – the Algoma, WI harbor and lighthouse.

This photo dates back to September 28, 1996. It was taken with my Kodak Easyshare DX7590 – a moderate step above a point-and-shoot camera that had a whopping, 5 mega-pixel sensor and a 10x optical zoom.

After a day of working at the church, I started for home. As I drove by the harbor, I noticed the rainbow.  I grabbed my camera and a new toy I had just received as a birthday gift a couple of weeks before – a circular polarizing filter.  It’s the filter that really brings out the colors of the rainbow.

A couple of things I remember from that shoot…  The rainbow was strong and lasted a long time.  I was able to take several photos from different locations around the harbor. Usually, about the time I get the camera out and the filter on, the beauty has faded.

I also remember being concerned about my camera, since there was a light drizzle falling.  I remember crouching under a very small tree to try to keep it dry.
