Let It Snow

January 11, 2016

A new year and a new lens. My new Canon 100mm f/2.8 IS USM L Macro lens arrived and I am getting to know it. Wow! This lens is sharp! The stabilization works really well and allows for a lower ISO handheld (which gives lower digital noise). I "lost" my macro lens when I sold my beloved Canon 7D and am really happy to have that capability back. What is a macro lens you ask? Simply, it is a lens that allows you to get really close so you can make small things magnified in the picture. The…

Nora’s First New Year

January 8, 2016
Blog

Nora enjoys New Years Eve on our bed. Nothing beats a kitten for hours of pure entertainment. Taken with the Canon 5d with Canon 24-105mm L lens. 1/6s at f/5.0 aperture. I used a bit of fill flash bounced off the back wall and ceiling to give some detail to her eyes and face.

Wahclella Falls in Winter

January 6, 2016
Blog

One of the benefits of my life is a get to travel; one of the miserable things about my life is I have to travel a lot! Sometimes I get a few moments to take some pictures. It has been really wet this Fall and early Winter in Oregon and my last trip was no exception. It rained continuously from the moment I arrived until I was 30 minutes from the airport on the way home. I took the opportunity to visit a place I had never been before - Wahclella Falls. The trail follows the river for about 1…

Before the Storm

Lake Winnebago has no ice yet and it is hard to see how there will be enough for Spearing season in just over a month. Things have a way of catching up so you never know. This photo was taken as the first real Winter storm of the season was bearing down on the Fox Valley. I used my Canon 5d MKIII with the Canon 16-35mm f/4 lens. Aperture was f/20 to get as much in focus as possible. The IS system really paid off as my hands were shaking from the bitter wind. Edited in Lightroom 6 to give…

Top of The World

January 3, 2016
Blog

The 2nd day of January and so many things to be thankful for! We watch the news and go so riled up we think the world is about to end - but it has always been that way! Right now we have more prosperity than any time in history. Hunger and want are at the lowest level ever. Spiritually I think we are in the beginning of a new awakening. Yes, there are problems. There always are and it is our responsibility to do what we can to make things better. But don't let that stop us from thanking God…

Super Moon Rise

The Super moon was on July 13th but clouds blocked. I shot this on July 14th so still pretty nice. Just working with my new camera slider rail. The hardest part is getting the exposure set so the video is not too light in the beginning and not too dark at the end.

We went to see "Wifee and The Huzz Band" at the Neenah Art in The Park on Sunday. Cool band! They have a 1962 Cadillac decked out in a sinister style. Kind of like the death car in Animal House. The chihuahua was a lot friendlier than he looks! Click on any image to view full size.
