Action
To Impress the Girl
For all of human history, boys have worked hard to impress the girls. This youngster is taking his impressionistic art form to new heights. Sticking the landing is taking all his powers of concentration.
I love the look on both their faces. If you look closely, you can see that both have their tongues sticking out. I enjoy the intensity on his face and the look of admiration on hers.
And now…the rest of the story. These youngsters are our grandchildren and the boy is not trying to impress the girl (his sister), he’s trying to impress his visiting grandparents. I just happened to be trying out a new camera. It takes awhile to get used to a new camera and lens. I certainly liked the early results.

Breaking Views
As the sun was rising over Lake Michigan, the waves were rising over the harbor pier at Algoma, WI.
I got up early and zipped to Algoma in hopes of catching a nice sunrise. The beautiful sunrise landscape image I was hoping for never materialized. However, it was a windy morning with waves crashing over the pier, so I focused on capturing some of the morning wave action.
In the low light conditions, it was difficult to capture the action of the crashing waves in focus. This is one of those shoots where I wish I could spend more time experimenting on the technical aspects.

Splishin’ & Splashin’
This little duck was having a grand ole time, splashing up a storm, celebrating a sunny, early spring day after a long, hard winter.
I happened to catch this character and its joyful display at the N.E.W. Zoo – about 10 minutes from Green Bay, WI.
