Looking down at the ice of a frozen lake. Large bubbles can be seen in the depth of the ice as well as many smaller ones. A band of light snow crosses the top of the photo.

Went for a walk on the Lake Wingra ice today.

If trees could talk

January 11, 2025TreesJonathan

Looking up from the base of a very large cottonwood tree. Above the tree's bare branches are clouds with spots of blue sky showing through.

If trees could talk, what wonderful stories would this beautiful old cottonwood have to tell us? Seen along the U.W. Lakeshore Preserve.

More snowy owl pics from Sunday. A few minutes after I first saw her, she decided to fly down for a snack at a deer carcass that was off the side of the road.

Sunset sights & sounds

January 4, 2025Lakes, Sky, Snow & IceJonathan

Sun setting through clouds over a frozen lake. In the foreground, a man in silhouette stands on a pier watching the sunset.

While I was along the shore capturing tonight’s sunset, the lake under the ice was making these deep, resonating sounds every so often: “bloooooop… galoooooop.”

Closeup of a dried flower head in front of a blurred background.

Long after the flowers bloom, what remains is strikingly beautiful, even on a grey December day. Friends on Instagram call this “lovely dead crap” — a fitting description.
