Another reoccurring subject in my 365 Project is feathers. This tiny down feather is the latest image in that theme. Only about an inch long, it’s amazing that a collection of these can power flight. Day 352 of my 365 photo a day project. Looking for art for your home or office or something to spice up your digital desktop? This image and most…… Continue reading Down Feather

1959 Chevy Apache

Looking for art for your home or office or something to spice up your digital desktop? This image and most of the others…… Continue reading 1959 Chevy Apache
Dizzy Moon
I call this one Dizzy Moon for what may or may not be obvious reasons. But the title came only as I was finishing up my processing. In actuality, I had no real goal in mind when I shot it outside of creating an abstract. Well, that is not entirely true. I guess I wanted to play…… Continue reading Dizzy Moon
If My Calculations Are Correct
If my calculations are correct, I have only 16 days and 16 images left in my photo a day project. Now that doesn’t necessarily mean they will all be good – see today’s average result. However, with multiple projects this afternoon, I figured I’d just do something simple that would not divide my time very much. Of course, growing…… Continue reading If My Calculations Are Correct
Five String Banjo
I’m adding a five string banjo to the list of instruments I’ve shot for this project. This one hangs on the wall at the Urban Ecology Center just down the road from our house where they have quite a collection of stringed instruments. Hanging next to it is also a guitar, a mandolin, and ukulele all hanging around…… Continue reading Five String Banjo

September 11, 2001. Never Forget. Day 347 of my 365 photo a day project.
Milwaukee Fire Department Engine 27
I had a nice conversation with the fine folks of Station 27 from the Milwaukee Fire Department today at a neighborhood block party. They were showing off Engine 27 and giving kids of all ages a chance to see a real fire truck up close and personal. My 2 1/2 year old son was enthralled. And I’ll…… Continue reading Milwaukee Fire Department Engine 27
Seashell by the Seashore
I wanted to capture something “summer-y” and minimalist to commemorate the impending end of summer and the slow downhill slide to the dead of winter. What better way than with a nice sandy beach and a seashell or two? The only problem with that is I’m in Milwaukee and nowhere near the ocean. Oh sure, we have Lake…… Continue reading Seashell by the Seashore
The Arch on the Edge of Forever
Everytime I walk through this arch in the park near our home on Milwaukee’s East Side, I think of an old TV show. And some of you may have guessed which one just from the title of this blog post. (Geeks.) The entrance to the Rotary Centennial Arboretum is quite magical, especially for being in the middle…… Continue reading The Arch on the Edge of Forever
The Frame
“Each man should frame life so that at some future hour fact and his dreaming meet.” –Victor Hugo Day 343 of my 365 photo a day project. The inspiration for this image comes from the abstract expressionist painter Agnes Martin. Works of art by painters, writers, and musicians often serve as idea factories for me.…… Continue reading The Frame
Missing Muse and the Watering Can
I am spent. I worked practically all night on a project and got very little rest. Hence, I’m rushing around tonight to find something to shoot. And my inspiration, my muse, is still on vacation. So what you get is a quick macro abstact shot of a miniture watering can. Now that I think about it, this image…… Continue reading Missing Muse and the Watering Can
Me and My Shadow
Reflection, meet shadow. Here is another shot of my son from the Milwaukee Art Museum this Labor Day weekend. Up on the third floor of the new wing, there are these great big windows overlooking the lake and the rest of the museum. One of his favorite places there, he loves to look out the…… Continue reading Me and My Shadow
