This is a different cropping of one of the images I posted for New Year’s Day. After I’d looked at the original image for a while, I realized that this was the image I was really after (for now, at least). This seems to be a bit of a pattern with me… I could get…
Here are a few more autumn images from the northwoods of Wisconsin and Michigan’s Upper Peninsula that have been languishing on my hard drive for a while… They were shot at varying locations from Mercer, Wisconsin over to Lake of the Clouds in the Porcupine Mountains in the U.P. As always, I’d love your comments!…

Happy New Year, everyone! Here are a few more winter images to wrap up 2009 and ring in 2010. These were taken the day after Christmas 2009 at Rock Cut State Park in Rockford, IL. We had a beautiful soft snowfall that day – you can’t clearly see the snowflakes in most of these, but…

Here’s the first image I’ve processed from a quick shoot the other day. We had some great fog in the morning, so I stopped by the same park where I took this shot almost a year ago. I found a few compositions that struck me, so more to come in the near(ish) future… – Jack
