This is Morgan Falls near Marquette. This was taken in late September. The 'blur effect' is done by lengthening the shutter time. Instead of my normal 800 shutter speed, I think this was done at about 200. Check it out! Sign in to see full entry.

Two Brothers, Sitting on A Log
I think these are two young (~ five or six years old) males. They were about 150 feet from me, but the zoom on my Nikon got this shot. I don't see any white bars on their plumage, so I am going to 'assume' that they're both males. Shortly after I took this shot, they took off, circled around a... Sign in to see full entry.

Whispering Foggy Roads
I stumbled across a photo I took back on a foggy morning in the late spring of 2016. This is just a winding road deep in the Keweenaw Peninsula, not far from Mama Superior. I also found the 'poetry' I used to add to such photos, and I happened to find the words I wrote for this shot. V PS: I forgot... Sign in to see full entry.

The Point of Whitefish Bay Point

The big ship was attempting to get to the right side of the point where the land would break up those waves that had over 400+ miles of open water to build speed and anger. The land...

Whooooooooo's There?
It turned out to be a decent day yesterday, so we went out for another walk in the afternoon. Buster, our big black dog, has to be given credit for spotting this creature as he saw it when I doubt that we would have ever done so. Normally, these birds begin to get here in mid-December, but...

Moose In The Ditch!
The trip home from Lansing was good other than the price of gas is now $3.94 here. It was uneventful until we got within five miles of Newberry and home, and then I spotted 'movement' in front of us. With mating season for the heavy deer population about to start, I slowed down to about fifteen mph.... Sign in to see full entry.

We are home finally. We had a chance to stop to see where v grew up & look around the barn & pond he used to swim in. The farm is owned by a friend of his now but the guy is selling it & they are talking about tearing down the 119 tr old building built in 1902. it still looks strong to me byt I...

An Extravaganza of Yellows
I had to zoom in a bit more than I wanted, but I thought the explosion of color was worth it. Check it out! Sign in to see full entry.
