Eagles At Sunrise

Eagles in the mist at sunrise this morning. 

I counted almost 50 Eagles before sunrise 

in trees along the Fox river in Kaukauna.

Wildlife along the Fox River Valley.

 When I was a child the Fox River was very polluted and did not support any wildlife except small birds, squirrels and rabbits. After years of good work by the Paper Companies along the Fox, things have indeed changed and today a healthy river system now supports abundant  wildlife.

 Recently I was asked to do photography that would illustrate the resurgence of wildlife along the Fox River.  Most of the photos were taken within just a few days and within the city limits along the Fox River.

Deer

Red Tailed Hawk

Turkeys

Bald Eagles

White Pelicans

Great Blue Herons

The Petros Dwende

Slowly the Dwende Elf is freed from giant tree,

so that her spirit may live on, resonating

within this Petros Guitar...

Oh yes, another snow storm today...

Even these tiny buds appear to be praying for an early spring...

I went for a walk very late on New Years Eve

and found serenity in the winter fog.

Happy New Year to everyone,

just a few days late...

Fall Harvest from the Heartland.

Just light drifting through the Oaks

on a foggy morning...

It appears that attempts of Genetic Engineering  

are having a negative effect on Wisconsin's dairy herds.

Oh, I've been bad. So very bad...

So sorry I've not posted in a while, but you must understand, I'm smitten, yes in love again...

We met in South Carolina, it was love at first sight. 

She is a bit younger than me, only 20 years old, and wow what legs...  

She had to come home with me!

After we got back to Wisconsin, I thought our first date here should be somewhere special.

So off we went to have a picnic at the exact center of the Northern Half of the Western Hemisphere.

Halfway between the North Pole and the Equator, and a quarter of the way around the Earth from Greenwich England.

 I think my new gal looks pretty in red...

I got up early and rode the bike to a county park. 

Walked in the woods and found some soft light awakening the ferns.

 All you need is light...

Scenes From The Road.

Where ever I went, thousands of magical Trillium carpeted the forest floor.

This one got up close and personal...

Wildflowers, Dancing Their Way Through Wisconsin Woodlands.

No flowers yet, just a dead weed...

I know you would rather see a pretty picture of a flower, but...

What do you get when you photograph

Yamaha's new top secret outboard motor

in the studio in Wisconsin,

and fly to Chattanooga Tennessee to photograph

Yamaha Pro Angler

Dean Rojas?

A great ad for Yamaha's 

hot new outboard!

Playing With Paper

A client of mine asked me to photograph

 the iridescent paper they manufacture.

It's nice to play at work.

Fire Truck Friday

Just something I did for a client last week,

 on Fire Truck Friday.

Two Leaves, One Light...

Two Leaves, One Light,

Oh, and some Marbles...

Scenes from the Past

Most days I'm a blue jeans kind of guy,

but some days I do "dress for work".

Had to suit up for this shot.

Yes it was hot,

Yes it is real...

No, I'm not a Fireman.

I just take pictures of them,

with their Pierce fire trucks.
