Connect the Dots
Moisture from a foggy morning collects like jewels on a tiny spider web.
Working on some macro photography and the foggy mornings have made spider webs particularly interesting.

Attention Grabbing
Something’s captured her attention. This is our granddaughter at the age of wonder and development. She’s learning more about the world around her and how to navigate it. At this stage, she was just learning to sit up on her own. I love the stabilizing grip she has on the afghan behind her.

Sensory Satisfacton
Beauty, noun – a combination of qualities that pleases the aesthetic senses, especially the sight.
This rose started out yellow in color. I thought I’d experiment – removing the color, adding some texture and a touch of mystery. I like the result better than the color version.

Upward Call
The sea gulls soar upward as the sun beams stream downward over Lake Michigan and the Kewaunee, WI lighthouse and pier. Since the colors were somewhat muted, I decided to convert this one to a monochrome look.
This is one of those images worth looking at in a larger size. To do so, click on the photo.
A Light Caress
The subtle tone and texture of this rose is accentuated by the soft light from a near by window.
It will be awhile before the flowers begin to bloom this spring. In the interim, I picked up a few flowers from a florist to photograph.
This rose is actually a vibrant, two-toned, orange and yellowish color. Ironically, the color made it an excellent candidate for a monochrome treatment.

Break of Dawn (vintage)
This is an image that dates back a few years. I was searching for it on this website and was surprised that I had never posted here. It’s a digitally enhanced version of one of my most popular images – Break of Dawn. (See the original HERE) The original is a wonderful color image. It would be my favorite of the two, but I also like the aged look this one receives from the monochrome and textured effects.

Comforting Shoulder
My wife, Sara, holds and comforts the newest grandchild at 10-days old. You can tell, in grandmas arms, she is in perfect peace.

Sullenly
The clouds and mist rising from Lake Michigan created a sullen scene at the Kewaunee, Wisconsin pier and lighthouse.
This was one of the last images I snapped on a very cold (below zero) morning of shooting. I’d been out there a lot longer than I would have thought – about an hour and forty-five minutes – but I found plenty to point my camera at. I was the only one braving the elements that morning. All of the footprints you see in the snow were made by me.
I had decided to call it a morning, was dismantling my equipment, folding my tripod and packing up to head home. I looked back over my shoulder and noticed the shadows from the tree and it drew me back for a few more minutes.

Winter Tangle
Wisconsin winters can be brutal…and beautiful. This ice-coated shrub is a chilling sight, but also an interesting study in contrast, light and refraction.
Refraction: the fact or phenomenon of light, radio waves, etc., being deflected in passing obliquely through the interface between one medium and another or through a medium of varying density.

Age of Discovery
I love the look of serious concentration on his face. He was crawling along the carpet and paused for moment of personal discovery. It was 15-seconds of intense study and then off to the next curiosity.
