I wasn’t really happy with the clouds and sky in this shot, but I’d been trying to capture more how the light reacted with the grass and moss along the tree-line. I’m fairly satisfied with the overall shot here, though it still didn’t fully capture the golden “feeling” of being there in that moment. Sunsets […]
Roadside
Photos taken while pulling off to the side of the road. These are the ones that annoy my son the most, he’s more about getting to where we’re driving.
Toward the Docks
I often have mixed feelings about taking photos of the big ore boats often seen on Lake Superior. It’s not uncommon to see a bunch of people taking photos when the boats are coming into harbor or leaving. For myself, I don’t find the boats themselves that interesting to look at in detail. But with […]
Morning Road
Download: Morning_Road_Asgard_Photography_IMG_6998.jpg Another shot taken on a way-too-early morning after having dropped my son off at school. I kept seeing a lot of fog along a few stretches of road so started taking my camera with to try to capture it. I never did catch it at it’s strongest, but I really liked this shot. Camera […]
Foggy Field
Download: Foggy_Field_Asgard_Photography_IMG_7010.jpg When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. In this case, when you have to get up at the butt crack of dawn to drive your kid to school, bring your camera with in case you find a patch of fog in a field you can take pictures of. This photo is another example of […]
Frozen Sand
I will always like Lake Superior better, but Lake Michigan often does a good close second, depending on the location. This was taken at a common rest stop when I’m traveling to or from the U.P., at Naubinway Public Beach off of US2. One of the many random photography tips I’d read online at some […]
Wet Woods
My first trip to a park with my camera during the Corona virus quarantine… didn’t end up being relaxing because everyone and their brother was there, and nobody was trying to stay distant from each other. Made me cranky. However, I was able to climb into the woods off the side of the road to […]
Piggy Back Ride
I must have looked at these trucks as I drove past them on 23 heading North for the better part of a year before finally stopping to take a picture. This was my second attempt (the first was on a much cloudier day.) From the highway there’s a fence in-between where you can stand and […]
Hauling Nothing
Not to infrequently I end up with a shot where I can’t decide whether I like it or not. Usually they are the result of random things I caught while working toward something completely different. In this case, I’d stopped to take a photo of a pair of old abandoned trucks, but this caught my […]
Cloudy Shores
Taken on a common rest-stop on my drive back from the U.P. – it lacks the foreground object I’d have liked there to have been, but what I liked was the white reflection in the wet beach of the clouds… it seemed an interesting combination of similarity and opposites in terms of colors and textures.
