Scenes from the north woods

July 17, 2023Camping, LandscapeJonathan

A lake pier leads to a hiking trail on the shore. A tall pine tree leans over the trail with other pine trees in the background.

Some photos from my camping vacation in Northern Wisconsin last week. Pity I can’t include a sample of that wonderful aroma of pine from these scenes.

A piece of tall grass with seeds at the top, leaning over from the wind. Behind is more grass out of focus, illuminated by the sun in front of a shadowy background.

Seen along the Token Creek Conservancy & Trails.

Light & shadow

July 5, 2023LightJonathan

Colorful deep greens and reddish greens of some large banana leaves are backlit by the afternoon sun.

I intended to process this as a black & white, but these colors are too beautiful to hide.

Purple

June 29, 2023FlowersJonathan

A purple water lily with a yellow center grows out of a pond. It's surrounded by several large lily pads that have purple and green streaks

Not sure which I find more beautiful: The purple water lily, or the purple and green lily pads.

Silver-spotted skipper

A butterfly perched on a leaf. It has a brown fuzzy body and brown wings with orange and off-white spots.

Came across this butterfly on a lunchtime walk. So grateful for nature to be close by where I work.

Range lights

View from the beach of a range light, with a small lighthouse in the distance. Both can be seen through an opening in a dense forest of trees.

Guiding boats safely into Baileys Harbor since 1870.
