Well, the Beloit Holidazzle was tonight, and a great time was had by all! The turnout was better than I expected, given the cold weather, and people seemed to be in a festive mood. I met a lot of friendly art lovers and got to talk with them about my work, reconnected with some folks…
Dave Taylor is a terrific nature photographer based in Alaska – if you’re a nature photography fan in the Rockford / Chicago area, you owe it to yourself to attend one of these presentations. And be sure to check out his website at http://sixtyonenorth.com/!

OK, this isn’t as seasonal as the images of the Lake Superior ice caves, but it is another image that has sat untouched on my hard drive for too long! This is from a walk in Big Hill Park here in Beloit on a pleasant foggy morning last fall. Comments appreciated, as always! – Jack
Here are a few more wintery images from my February 2009 visit to the ice caves on Lake Superior, just outside Bayfield, Wisconsin. Please let me know what you think! – Jack
The blizzard has me thinking winter thoughts, and going back through old photos for images I haven’t worked on yet. I found a few from my February 2009 trip to the Lake Superior ice caves outside Bayfield, Wisconsin. This was the first time I’d been to the ice caves, and they blew me away! I’m…
Just a quick note on the gear I have for sale here: I replaced a couple of empty ink cartridges in the Canon ipf 5100 printer, so I’ve adjusted both the description and the price for that item – it’s actually still the same amount of ink, but now more of it’s in the printer…
This is a bit of an experiment, inspired by Dave Taylor and Varina and Jay Patel, among others. I’m starting with only two image sizes, one wider than the other. To set an image as your desktop wallpaper, just right-click (PC) / control-click (Mac) on one of the links below and save the image to…
I’ll be at The Villager for Beloit Holidazzle, December 11 from 5-9 PM. The Villager is located at 429 E Grand Ave. in Beloit, but Holidazzle itself encompasses the Downtown Beloit area with lots of art, crafts, and entertainment by a wide variety of artists. If you attend Holidazzle, please feel free to stop in…
OK, so this is a shameless request for your vote – one of my images (shown below) is a finalist in Outdoor Photographer Magazine’s 2nd Annual Nature’s Colors photo contest. Some prizes will be awarded by judges’ decision, but the People’s Choice Prize is determined by popular vote. So, if you like my image, please…
These were shot at Little Girl’s Point in the Michigan U.P. in early October. This is one of those spots that offers so much more to the senses than I can show in a photo – the larger waves sent water splashing into my face (and the camera’s lens!), a crisp wind blew the scent…
