Autumn Immersion

Woods, Autumn, Fall, Foliage, Colors, Trees, Leaves
The woods were enchanted this weekend with October’s autumn colors. This is a little bit of wilderness a stone’s throw from our home rural northeast Wisconsin.

Summer Skylight

Sunset, Sunrise, Rural, Sky, Clouds, Reflection
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

Lighthouse, Kewaunee, WI, Wisconsin, Lake Michigan, Sunrise, Sunset, Clouds
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.

Reclining Monarch

Butterfly, Monarch, Monarch Butterfly, Purple Aster, Wildflowers, This is a butterfly common to our neighborhood and most of North America. This is the much-loved monarch butterfly.  I found this one on a cool morning, perched among some purple asters growing wild in a field. Because of the early, cool conditions, this monarch was moving slow and the asters hadn’t opened yet.

Fire Above

Clouds, Sunrise, Sunset, Lighthouse, Kewaunee, WI, Lake Michigan
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.

Life of the Party

Fireworks, Reflection, Colorful, Burst, Algoma, WI, Shanty Days
This fireworks burst certainly provided a festive atmosphere.  It was part of the fireworks show that is the traditional finale of the Shanty Days celebration in Algoma, WI.

This year’s event was added fun because I was joined by a other photographers, sharing tips and techniques. All came away with some great shots.
