Half Light: Jumping Off
“We have to continually be jumping off cliffs and developing our wings on the way down.” –Kurt Vonnegut This is me jumping off a cliff and praying for wings! After 31 days of shooting for my 365 project, I really hit a road block creatively today. Not much energy to shoot anything either. So…… Continue reading Half Light: Jumping Off
One Leaf, Two Leaf
I found this pair of leaves on a rain soaked park bench exactly this way – laying on one other in relative symmetry. While I did a lot of post-processing, Mother Nature certainly did quite a bit of the set up for me. I only had to slow down and look around to see it.…… Continue reading One Leaf, Two Leaf
Opposite – Word Play
“It belongs to the imperfection of everything human that man can only attain his desire by passing through its opposite” –Soren Kierkegaard When I shot the word “Open” I had no idea where the image was going to take me. But there was something about it that made me slow down, turn around, stop, and…… Continue reading Opposite – Word Play
Son
I kind of feel like I’m cheating on my photo a day for a year challenge when I photograph my son. He makes a really great and readily available model. But then again, I’m making the rules of my 365 project, so get used to seeing shots of him. I’m sure there will be quite…… Continue reading Son
Glenview Impressions
We stayed overnight at a friends place in Glenview, Illinois. This little pond is directly across the street from their house. In the morning, the pond was as smooth as glass and the light was just perfect. I was struck by the symmetry in the reflection and the fall colors in the leaves. I’m…… Continue reading Glenview Impressions
Garden Art
Today…well, this was actually yesterday, but I didn’t get a chance to post until today. Anyway, we visited some friends in Glenview, Illinois. I was out in their backyard shooting with my trusty Droid Turbo cell phone camera – don’t judge, it’s a good camera – when these crazy creepy garden fairies started running out…… Continue reading Garden Art
Fiery Autumn
Yes, it’s getting colder, the days are getting shorter, and summer is gone. But scenes like this make up for all that. Well, almost… 😉 Autumn in all of its fiery glory with the reds, oranges, yellows, and greens set against a bright blue fall sky. This shot was taken near the Urban Ecology Center along the…… Continue reading Fiery Autumn
Look Around
The most interesting photos are not always in front of us. You have to look around. Sometimes they are behind, above, or even below us. Slow down, breathe, relax, and look. Beauty and wonder is everywhere. Autumn leaves on the forest floor along the Ice Age Trail in October, Lapham Peak, Kettle Moraine State Forest,…… Continue reading Look Around
Vintage Farmall Tractor
I found this vintage Farmall tractor while on a family trip to the Cedarburg Creek Farm pumpkin patch in Cedarburg, Wisconsin. They actually had two vintage tractors – this one and a John Deere – pictures to follow later at some point, maybe. 😉 The Farmall was old, certainly well used and most certainly beat…… Continue reading Vintage Farmall Tractor
Take the Stairs
“The vision must be followed by the venture. It is not enough to stare up the steps – we must step up the stairs.” –Vance Havner A stairway in the historic Marshall Building, Third Ward, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Day 13 of my 365 photo a day project. If you are looking for art for your home…… Continue reading Take the Stairs
A Quiet Moment
A quiet moment with my son, albeit brief, at the Milwaukee Public Library East Branch. I’m amazed he sat still even this long. He is a bundle of energy and never really stops moving! Day 11 of my 365 photo a day project. If you are looking for art for your home or office or…… Continue reading A Quiet Moment
