Reflections
Reflecting In Alabama
The tranquil Burnt Corn Creek meanders through Jennings Park in Brewton, Alabama, reflecting the surrounding greenery in the calm waters of this panoramic image.
I recently spent a weekend in Brewton Alabama. This creek runs along the border of Jennings Park – a beautiful attraction the locals can be proud of. It has paved trails, a long, raised boardwalk through a wooded area, an abundance of wild and cultivated flowers and this restful spot along the creek.
This panoramic image was produced by stitching five separate photos together to capture a wider perspective. To really enjoy the scene, I encourage you to click on the photo to view a much larger version.

Kewaunee Sparkles
Fireworks light up the night sky over the Kewaunee, WI harbor. The Tug Ludington, a tourist attraction and permanent resident of the harbor, was a quiet observer.
One of my photographic joys is capturing fireworks. Kewaunee is a couple of miles from my home, so I try to make their annual display. I’ve photographed their fireworks from a number of locations over the years but this spot, at the edge of the harbor is one of my favorites. I love the reflection from the calm water. The tug adds a nice point of interest.

Infinitely Glassy
The infinity mirror effect of these unique glass bottles is mesmerizing. The reflective nature of the different shaped bottles, combined with the infinity mirror effect captured my gaze for quite some time. This is a work of modern art on display at the Milwaukee Public Museum. I thought a monochrome treatment worked well for this display.
One of the most interesting aspects of this image – at least, for me – is the fact that you can’t see my reflection in this image. I’m standing right in front of these reflective bottles (about 2 feet away) and there is nothing of me, or others in the room, to be seen.

Drawn to The Light
The light dances upon the waves of Lake Michigan as it gently leads you to the Kewaunee lighthouse and the powerful sun beyond.
I snapped this image some time ago and finally got around to processing it. I decided to make it a monochrome image, intentionally making it softer is some areas and gritty in others.
I particularly like the cross lines created by the tiny light reflections on the waves; much more so than the lines radiating from the sun. This was taken from shore using a telephoto lens.

Mesmerizing Morning Blues
Just before the sun would breach the horizon, the Algoma, Wisconsin lighthouse, pier and harbor was bathed in wonderful blue hues. I’m glad I was able to capture the sky’s reflections on the calm harbor waters. I got several good shots from my visit that morning.
I decided to try to catch the sunrise in Algoma – about 12 miles from my home. Although I started out early, I thought I was going to miss the best part of the morning light. I got out of bed at 4:30 am, looked at the sky and decide to try it. By the time I got my gear packed and hit the road it was 4:50. As I was driving and watching the sky, I thought I was going to miss it…or at least get there just on time and have to scramble to get some good shots. The sunrise was at 5:24.
I was able to get to the harbor, grab my tripod and backpack of gear and ran out to the pier. Before I left home I had checked an app I use to determine the best location for getting the sun to line up somewhere close to the lighthouse. I knew just where I needed to be…on the pier. The optimal point was a little further down the pier then where this shot was taken, but I stopped on my way there to snap a few. This was the second frame I shot, so I should be posting more from this morning in the near future.
