A quiet, fog-touched morning

Blue Morning

The promise of sunrise beckoned me out of the house and into an unseasonably mild January morning. There was light fog around, lending a melancholy or mysterious mood to the scenery. Walking a bit, I gazed out across a small lake and watched geese warily watch me. I strolled through a nearby cemetery as the sun slipped nearer the horizon. A small pond reflected colors left over from autumn, tree branches, and grass green from recent warmth. The sun began to shine through bare trees and the fog burned off. The fog-touched morning magic was gone.

The Day Began That Way

The Day Began This Way

I stopped by the Lake Erie shoreline again Saturday morning. The sun was breaking through some high clouds and I wanted to see the interplay of morning sunlight and lake waters; It was exciting! The waves, while not large, constantly smashed against break walls and crawled up the sandy beach. The sky, to the east and south, was mostly clear but clouds were moving in from the northwest. I had a wonderful time, shooting more than 200 exposures of waves, water, sun, clouds, and more. A couple of my favorite “sun” photos are shown here. Maybe, one day, I will post more here or on my gallery site. For now, these will have to do.

The ice turned golden

On an outing this afternoon I stopped by the Metroparks' Mill Stream Run Reservation and explored the frozen landscape. I photographed shadows, animal tracks, snow, and the stream. It was 16 (F) degrees so I did not stay for long. Hands sore from the cold, I made my way back towards my waiting car. As I crossed the small bridge to the parking lot, I stopped to gaze at the frigid water. For just a moment the ice turned golden.
