Curvaceous
A number of people have told me this stretch of highway, just before you reach Gills Rock at the northern tip of the Door County, WI peninsula, is the most photographed road in the world. I don’t know who’s keeping track, but a number of people stopped and got out of their cars to snap a quick photo while I was there. In fact, I left my home before sunrise just to get there and this shot in the early morning light.
My intent was to make it an “Autumn Colors” tour and get some great fall foliage. I didn’t get much else worth noting. Once the sun was up, it was clear and bright – creating too much contrast and washing out the colors.
I spent a good deal of time in processing this image. A lot of that time was spent removing a power line that stretched across the upper part of the image. Thanks to the magic of software…with a bit of skill and a bunch of patience…an unsightly distraction was eliminated. I thought about removing the mailbox and For Sale sign on the right, but decided it wasn’t too distracting and probably added to the rural feel.

Canopy of Color
This is the time to get out into the woods and view the vivid colors of the changing leaves. This is a upward view from the woodlands near our home in rural Kewaunee, Wisconsin. Yesterday was my first opportunity to get out and grab some fall color shots. I picked up a few.

Evening at Pabst
An early evening view of the historic, Pabst Brewery in Milwaukee, Wisconsin under a deepening night sky.
I’ve had this image hibernating on my hard drive for some time. I finally got around to processing it. I took it several months ago, when a Milwaukee area photographer friend showed me around the downtown area…after an enjoyable meal at Jackson’s, the restaurant located in the lower left corner of the Pabst building.
There’s some great detail in this image, which can be seen more clearly in the larger view you’ll see if you click on the photo.

Drama Queen
There seems to be a drama queen in every bunch; even among flowers. These dramatic wildflowers were found on edge of our rural Wisconsin property. I’m not sure what caused the petals to curl in such a dramatic way.

Rain of Fire
An impressive burst of cascading color from the annual Shanty Days festival at Algoma, WI. The fireworks display is a crowd favorite that closes out the summer, weekend celebration.

Reticent
The sun seemed a bit reticent as it made it’s appearance behind the lighthouse and pier at Kewaunee, WI – on the western shore of Lake Michigan.
I named this, “Reticent,” because the sun exhibited qualities of the word: restrained in expression, presentation or appearance.

Wow Factor
The 4th of July tradition of fireworks is part of the Independence Day celebration in Kewaunee, WI. This was a larger-than-life burst from this year’s display.

Hanging Hearts
It’s not difficult to understand the thinking behind the common name of this garden favorite – bleeding heart. Its heart-shape pink or white blooms with a protruding tip make it a logical choice.
Bleeding hearts are a species of flowering plant in the poppy family. These bleeding hearts are from ,my wife’s flowerbed near our house.

Segregated Spring
The tulips were brilliant at the Scholte House gardens. We visited there during the 2015 Tulip Festival in Pella, IA.

Star Power
The camera (or, more accurately, the photographer) did not fully capture the beauty of this flower. It seemed much more appealing to my eye than it does here, in digital form.
This is a new addition to one of my wife’s flower beds. Unfortunately, it got bit by the recent, late frost. It looks like it may recover so, hopefully, we’ll be seeing future blooms from this one.
