52 Week Project: Week 34

I found this cool old building (established in 1908) in Superior, WI last month and loved the orange color. I spent sometime walking around and never could quite get the composition that matched my vision of what I saw. In the end, I grabbed a few photographs of the door. I would like to say [...]

52 Week Project: Week 26

Last week while out of town on visit, I drove through Hurley, WI. The weather was pretty miserable for a good part of the day and I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to shoot. The monsoon stopped and the clouds broke up a bit allowing for some nice lighting. This is a [...]

52 Week Project: Week 25

I took this picture out our bedroom window during sunset last week. Is it a remarkable picture? Not really. Technically brilliant? Nope (didn’t compose the shot to not include part of our house on the right nor did I crop it out). I do like the color and how it lights the bottom of the [...]

52 Week Project: Week 20

During some downtime during my trip last year to the BWCA, I found this flower while watching some of the guys fish. A macro lens would have been nice but would have added yet one more thing to bring in and a) I don’t own one and b) My waterproof bag is only so large. [...]

52 Week Project: Week 17

Went out one day a few weeks ago to hang out in downtown Anoka, MN with a buddy to shoot whatever we could find. This tunnel/steps combination caught my eye and ended up as one of my favorites of the day. I originally was going to go B&W but ended up using the Punch preset [...]

52 Week Project: Week 15

This American flag is part of the Veterans Memorial Park located in Belle Plaine, MN. I really wanted a picture of the UH-1H Iroquois “Huey” helicopter but couldn’t get a good angle for the shot. Not wanting to leave this hallowed place empty handed, I looked around and saw the wind whipping the flags around. [...]

52 Week Project: Week 12

Whenever I make it down to Omaha for work, I most always end my trip with dinner at Upstream Brewing. Besides very good beer, the food is not your typical bar spread but rather a vast range of comfort food (I recommend the pot roast). If you’re ever in Omaha, I highly recommend spending a [...]

52 Week Project: Week 8

We had some nice ice forming on the trees around our house a couple of weekends ago that I was able to shoot before they melted. This was one of my favorites even though I think this is a weed. I included a black and white version as well, which I like a little more. [...]
