Here's another shot from my trip to the Wisconsin Northwoods earlier this month… There was a lovely fog that morning, but it burned off entirely too quickly – there were more locations and compositions I wanted to shoot, but I ran out of fog and time!

February 22nd in Wisconsin, and it’s raining. Barely a patch of snow to be seen. We have a chance of snow with accumulation up to 3″ in the next couple of days, but it’s supposed to be mixed with rain and melt soon. This is just so wrong. I blame myself, though – I finally…
(I’m consolidating my photography sites, so I’ll be posting a few posts from other sites here in preparation for shutting them down…) The Mindful Photographer: f/8 and Be Here Now

My ideal way of being in the world is best expressed by the Navajo concept of Beauty, or hozho, which encompasses beauty, order, balance, peace, and harmony. This is the most beautiful expression of hozho I’ve found: Navajo Blessing Way Prayer Today I will walk out, today everything evil will leave me, I will be…
Very nice Jack. It reminds me of the area I lived in back in Minnesota before I moved west. It triggers some pleasant memories.
Thanks, pj. I really miss this sort of scene when I’m away from the northwoods…
I love this type of stuff Jack. Great examples of the textures and warm brown tones that exist after the “in your face” color has passed.
btw, I can’t really see the text in your reply to PJ above, seems to be white text on a light blue background. Probably a CSS tweak in your new theme?
Thanks, Mark, and thanks for pointing out the css issue… hopefully it’s a bit easier to read now! 🙂

Nice blog and wonderful photography. Thanks for sharing.
Dear Jack, I am just Loving what I have seen so far, your images are amazing on how I experience a closer connection to nature. They remind me of our Central Ontario area of The Muskokas and Algonquin Park, my ancestral home and family lineage. As fourth generation Algonquin I am always drawn to images of the wilderness and the spiritual draw on my soul. I hope you take a peak at my collection of some of my most precious gems in nature that I enjoy so much. They are all my favorite ” Sit Spots”
Thanks, Steven, and thanks for visiting – come back anytime! 🙂
