Cold Climb
As cold as it is, it only seems natural to post a photo that reflects current conditions in Wisconsin.
The pier at Algoma was coated with Lake Michigan ice. The red ladder is a safety measure, giving anyone who were to fall off the pier, into the water, a way to climb out. The water of the harbor wasn’t visible, due to the ice buildup.

Amiable Awakening
Nothing is more enjoyable than watching the sky transition through a warm array of colors as the sun rises above Lake Michigan, behind the Algoma, WI harbor and lighthouse. It doesn’t happen every morning. In fact, it doesn’t happen more than it does. But when it does, it’s well worth the effort to have a front row seat.

Sky Iris
It was a cold morning with 13-degrees Fahrenheit and patches of fog in our rural neighborhood. This was a scene that caught my eye that morning. I tried to sharpen the trees a bit but the fog in the air kept everything soft.
I titled it Sky Iris because the sun in the trees remind me of a pupil and the fog-induced aura, accentuated by the branches, remind me of an eye’s iris.

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.

Winter’s Fangs
To me, this image portrays the beauty, and often harsh, reality of Wisconsin winters. I found these icicles hanging off the roof of our front porch. As you can see from the out of focus icicles in the background, they weren’t the longest specimens that day.

Merry Christmas – 2013
Home Nativity
This is the humble nativity scene that is a Christmas staple in the Pevlor home. It is a collection of different pieces with different origins – each with a family memory attached. The historical event it depicts is the center of our Christmas celebration.

Season Finale
This collection of fall foliage caught my attention for the diversity in form and color. The leaves were wet, which seems to bring out the best of their rich, deep colors. Even the contrast provided by the white bark of the help the colors pop.
