Big City Serenity
I was able to connect with a photographer friend on a recent trip to Milwaukee, WI. He graciously took me to a few locations for nighttime photography. I thought this one turned out well.
Along Milwaukee’s river walk, there are a number of downtown locations where a beautiful scene can be captured.

Heaven Above
The sky was glorious the morning I captured this image. It was shortly after sunrise and the low angle of the sun was only lighting up certain areas of the sky.
This is the Kewaunee, Wisconsin lighthouse and pier on the western shore of Lake Michigan.

Fall In the Creek
A serene scene of natural beauty. Colorful autumn leaves blanketed the ground and floated by on a gently flowing Wisconsin woodland stream.
This is an image from last fall in the woods across the field from our home. A very peaceful, highly enjoyable morning in the woods.

Morning Smoke Signals
The dark, wispy clouds reminded me of puffs of smoke hanging over the Algoma, Wisconsin lighthouse and pier. This view was photographed last Sunday morning just before the sun emerged from behind the bank of low clouds to rise over Lake Michigan.

Lake Spirits Rising
Wispy clouds, illuminated by the rising sun, provided an interesting backdrop to the Kewaunee, Wisconsin lighthouse and pier. Kewaunee is a small community on the western shore of Lake Michigan.

Summer Skylight
A few evenings ago, the sunset lit up the rural Wisconsin sky with an awesome display of color. Naturally, I stepped out into the yard to record the beauty.
We’ve had a wetter than normal fall this year, keeping the lawns green and, in our case, sloppy wet. The large puddle in our yard (remaining effects of a recent rain) reflected the early evening beauty.

Blue Morning Whispers
Just before the sun rises over Lake Michigan and the Kewaunee, WI lighthouse, the soft clouds speak in subtle whispers to those who have ears to hear.

Sunbather’s Spot
There was one spot on the pond where the sun was shining through the trees…and this turtle was taking full advantage of it.
Normally, at the first sight of people, the turtles in this pond would dive into the water. This one was not leaving his cozy spot. Not until I got quite a bit closer.

Fire Above
A unique effect, created by the sun highlighting the bottom of the clouds above the Kewaunee, WI lighthouse and pier. This was just moments before the sun would breach the Lake Michigan horizon. If you look closely, you can see fishermen on the pier, hoping for a bit of early morning angling action.
I take a lot of sunrise photos from the shore of Lake Michigan. I live a couple of miles from shore so I’m in the habit of looking to the sky a half hour or so before sunrise. If the sky shows any promise, and it’s a day when I don’t have to be somewhere else like work or church, I head to the beach.
You never know how it’s going to turn out. There are days when things look promising but the sky never makes good on that promise. But, on other days, it can be breathtaking.
I take a lot of sunrise photos because no two sunrises are the same….except those with no clouds at all. It’s the clouds that make a sunrise worth capturing. When I look to the early morning sky, I’m looking for cloud….usually light wispy ones. These weren’t wispy, but the effect was well worth the trip.

Down by the Creek
Is there anything more peaceful and refreshing than wading through a cool creek on a warm summer day? This toddler clearly loves the water. It’s hard to keep him out of it.
