Crashing Water

by

I like that I caught the water crashing, and that you can see the ridges of ice on the rocks. This is from winter of 2013, when Lake Superior was not frozen completely over, so you could photograph nice contrasts of moving water and ice.

Ice Bubbles

by

This year there was so much ice on Lake Superior that water didn’t get close enough to shore to make beautiful ice bubbles on the rocks. This picture is from 2013–the lake was mostly open, and the waves piled up ice on the rocks.

Magnolia Flower

by

Magnolia trees are beautiful–ours is only a couple years old, and seems to really bloom nicely every other year. This picture is from last year when there were tons of blooms on it; currently, there’s only a couple of buds getting ready to bloom.

Cross River

Cross River Clouds

Both of these pictures were taken in the same place, but perhaps a year or so apart, at Lamb’s Resort on Lake Superior. This is the Cross River, flowing into Lake Superior. I can’t tell if I prefer the cloudy or sunny shot.

Rose-breasted Grosbeak

by

I don’t take tons of pictures of birds, though we do have some pretty ones that come to the feeders. When I take the time to use my nice zoom lens, sometimes I can grab some good shots of them.

Tulips

by

I love tulips; the huge array of colors, and how they are some of the first flowers to appear.

Abandoned Garage

by

I love looking at old, abandoned houses (though I guess I’m glad I don’t live right next door to any).  I love how that one tree had turned red before all the others.

Flower

I wish I could be more specific, but I’m not sure what kind of flower this is–these are found in northern Minnesota, in the fall.
