Hear Me Roar
Sundown Bay
A couple of months ago my wife and I took a few days away in Door County. On our first evening, we made our way to the shore of Green Bay to catch the sunset. The low clouds added a bit of drama to an, otherwise, calm day’s end.

Perfect Peace
I caught this soulful look from my grandson, Sammy, while taking photos of him last June. I thought it was perfect to attach a scripture to. Sammy was a strapping 8-months old.

Sun and Stars
These are wildflowers found on our property. They are in an area where I scattered a bunch of wildflower seeds last year. We never saw any of these last year, so it was a pleasant surprise to see these big, bright blooms among the weeds this year. The white dandelion-like seeds in the center of the flower blew over from some nearby weeds.

Beadwork
Form, flowing lines and color make this an interesting image for me. A simple hostas leaf retains the remnants of a spring shower.

Catching Some Light
A collection of people were on the Kewaunee pier, near the lighthouse, as this August full moon was rising over Lake Michigan. I believe most of the spectators are fishermen, but not all. Notice the gal, second from the right. You can see the light of her cell phone – no doubt trying to capture a photo. The other lights on the horizon are distant fishing boats.
I took this photo from the shore; about 750 feet away. From a technical standpoint, there’s a lot of digital noise in this image – but it was taken in relatively dark circumstances.

Coming Attractions
At the very beginning of their blooming season, these daylilies show a lot of potential. Each year these wild beauties grow, and faithfully bloom, around a utility pole on our rural Wisconsin property.

Earth Mover
This tiny mushroom shows extraordinary determination and strength, pushing up a comparatively large chunk of the forest floor to make it’s debut.

Flourish of Gray
This is a close-up look at the center of a poppy. The tissue-paper-like texture of the poppy petals make an interesting frame for the flower’s center.
This bloom started as a very bright red. I decided to take a different turn and make it a black and white image.

Lakeside Sedation
The pre-sunrise calm of the Lake Michigan shoreline can have a calming effect. This is an early morning view from the beach at Kewaunee, Wisconsin.

EAA Fireworks – 2013
It’s no secret, especially to those who follow this blog, I like fireworks. This is one of my favorite fireworks photos.
The fireworks are pretty cool, but my favorite part is the people. The people are my favorite part because of where they are. If you look closely, you’ll notice airplanes parked among the people.
This is a view from the fireworks display at the Experimental Aircraft Association’s 2013 AirVenture – held every year in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
