Fishermen
Fiery Atmosphere
The lighthouse at Kewaunee, Wisconsin was awakened to a colorful sky on a calm summer morning.
This image was captured after we moved to Missouri. We were back in the area on a short visit last summer. I was blessed with a decent sky on the one morning I was able to get out there.

Sun Day
The rising sun, behind the Kewaunee, WI lighthouse, provided a beautiful start for the early morning fishermen on the pier.
I named this one, Sun Day, because it was a Sunday morning sunrise; yesterday.

Popular Night Spot
A number of people waited near the lighthouse, at the end of the long, Kewaunee, WI pier, to watch the full moon rise above Lake Michigan.
This was an August full moon. The small lights you see on the horizon are fishing boats out on the lake. I took this photo from the beach with a large zoom lens.

Catching Some Waves
Two fishing buddies are casting for the early bite from the pier at Kewaunee, WI. The waves seemed particularly excited to see the sun that morning.

Fishing Light
The full moon and lighthouse presented a dramatic backdrop for a couple preparing to fish off the pier at Kewaunee, Wisconsin. When ready, they would cast a seine net over the side and illuminate the surface of the water with their lantern, hoping to attract small Lake Michigan fish – smelt.
The evening was much darker than it appears in this image and I was a lot farther away than one would think at first glance. I was on shore which put the lighthouse about 750 feet away. The moon had to be at least three or four times that far. 😉

Sentinels – Fishing in the Fog
Like sentinels with bayonets drawn, two fishermen are on high alert, ready for the bite. These stalwart anglers are fishing for salmon in the early morning fog. Their lures are plying the waters of Lake Michigan, off the pier at Algoma, Wisconsin.
