Evening scenes at High Cliff

June 4, 2022Camping, SkyJonathan

Orange sunset sky over a lake, seen from the top of an observation tower with trees in the foreground.

I spent most of the past week camping at High Cliff State Park. Sure is good for my soul to get away and spend some extended time in nature.

Prairie art

May 23, 2022Art & Culture, Black & WhiteJonathan

Silhouette of a metal sign depicting several kinds of prairie plants, insects, a farm, a human hand, animal hoof & paw prints, and a sandhill crane.

I usually take pictures of the flora and fauna when I visit the UW Arboretum. But this metal piece of art, in front of the Curtis Prairie, caught my eye.

Arboretum green

Looking down from a hillside. The grass is green and the trees all have leaves on them.

It does my heart good to see the landscape so green these days. U.W. Arboretum.

Sand cherry

May 15, 2022Flowers, SpringJonathan

Cluster of very small, white and pink blossoms on a shrub with reddish leaves.

Another spring blossom from my yard.

Bleeding hearts

May 11, 2022Flowers, Life, Spring, ThoughtsJonathan

Close up of red, heart-shaped blossoms hanging on a vine. The blossoms are open at the base and have a part hanging at the bottom, which looks like a drop of blood.

The bleeding hearts in my yard carry a lot of symbolism for me this year, for a few reasons. They’ve lasted longer than expected this spring, which is fittingly symbolic as well. Hoping for brighter days ahead as these blossoms fade for the season.

May 9, 2022Spring, TreesJonathan

A cluster of tiny, new maple leaves, growing on the end of a branch.

Trees are coming to life again — feels like a long time coming this year.

Great egrets hanging out along Wingra Creek, looking for lunch no doubt.
