Evening at Pabst

Pabst, Beer, Night, Brewery, Historic, City, Skyline
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.

Tree Dwellers

Mushroom, Mushrooms, Tree, Woods, Woodland, Fungus, FungiOn a walk through the woods, I spotted this collection of mushrooms growing in the hollow of a large tree.  I thought the colors, textures and just the oddity of mushrooms growing in a tree made it an interesting sight.

Peace Unto You

Lighthouse, Harbor, Wisconsin, Lake Michigan, Sunrise, Clouds, Blue
A beautiful September, Lake Michigan sunrise as viewed from the Algoma, Wisconsin harbor.

This is actually three individual photos I “stitched” together to make a wider, panoramic view.

It’s been awhile since I’ve been able to catch a nice sunrise behind the Algoma lighthouse.  When I looked out the window and realized the sky might be cooperative, I packed up and headed out.  I got there just in time and get several good images.  Watch for more in the future.

Lakeside Landscaping

Lake Michigan, Sunrise, Lighthouse, Kewaunee, Grass, Reflection
In an early morning outing I captured the sun rising over Lake Michigan and the Kewaunee, WI lighthouse and pier. Normally I shoot the lighthouse sunrises from the edge of the water, on the beach.  For this shot, I moved back into the grassy area beyond the sand.

I love looking at the detail in the plant life.  You can see more detail in the larger version by clicking on the photo.

Misty Morning Boardwalk

Boardwalk, Algoma, WI, Bench, Fog, Mist, Foggy, Misty, Blue
As dawn begins to break over the Crescent Beach boardwalk in Algoma, WI, a light fog mutes the colors and quiets the light.

I left home by 4:30 to catch the sunrise at Algoma.  But, as you can see, the sunrise was not to be seen.  Well, not as I was expecting, anyway.

Reticent

Sunrise, Blue, Lighthouse, Kewaunee, WI, Lake Michigan
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.

A patch of wild daises await the sunrise on a rural Wisconsin morning.  This was the scene I captured a few days ago where our lawn meets the farm field that surrounds our property.

Rock Bottom on the River

Rock Bottom Brewery, Milwaukee, WI, River, Riverwalk, Reflection, Night
Despite the sign, it’s not the “Ro Bottom.”  (I hear minions giggling.)  It’s the Rock Bottom Restaurant and Brewery, located on the Riverwalk in downtown Milwaukee, WI.  On an evening of “big city” night photography, a photographer friend and I shared a meal here and then walked up and down the river taking photos.
