Train Tracks on Highway 61
Driving home last week last week up Highway 61, along the Mississippi River in eastern Minnesota, I stopped several times along the way to shoot. This just happens to be a random train crossing along they way (IIRC, north of Wabasha). Exposure: 1/200 sec, Aperture: f/11, Focal Length: 28 mm, ISO 200.
Sunday Lake
I took this photo of Sunday Lake located in Wakefield, MI last June. I wished I would have taken more time to experiment as I think I would have gotten a better picture. Exposure: 1/4000 sec, Aperture: f/3.5, Focal Length: 28 mm, ISO 200.

By looking at my neighbor’s American flag, it was pretty blustery that evening. Exposure: 1/20 sec, Aperture: f/5.6, Focal Length: 135 mm, ISO 200.
