  • Before the windows were replaced in our house, we used to get these wonderful frost patterns that would appear especially after very cold nights.  I don't miss the draftiness but I do miss photographing the frost.

  • A fresh white snowstorm in the heart of a Midwestern winter. Typically these types of snowstorms don't last long and the snow it hangs on the trees is usually short-lived. It is basically go time when storms like this come. Be ready and capture the moments before the wind comes and blows the snow off the trees or the sun comes and melts it off.

  • Waterfalls themselves are spectacular.  The power exhibited by of one of nature's forces crashing through or tunneling out rock as it makes its journey down into a waiting pool of water.  All that energy can create something spectacular.  It can be something as simple as rapids or more hypnotic as a whirlpool.  As shown below at Dave's Falls in Wisconsin, all the wispy oxygenated water from the whirlpool shows up as white streaks due to the long exposure used to slow down the rapid movement of the water.  The extremely low angle of the shot adds to the drama and makes it seem as though you are standing in the water.  The bridge and fall color complete the image inviting you to take it all in.

  • I was in my cousin's boat with camera in tow for the purpose of capturing a pair of bald eagles that were nesting in a tree near the water.  I didn't have enough lens to take proper pictures of the eagles so on our journey back, I photographed the surrounding area and came across this image. The sun was setting and I noticed this pattern in the water caused by the wake of the boat and the colors of the sky reflecting off the water.  It's very peaceful and serene to me.
