River to the unknown

February 6, 2019Fog & Mist, Landscape, RiversJonathan

Trees arching over a river enveloped in fog, with snow on the river banks

I love the mysterious nature of fog, and how it can completely transform familiar scenes. What’s beyond those trees? Are you sure?

February fog

Oak tree standing in snow, with small trees shrouded by fog in the background

Heavy fog rolled in on Sunday, caused by temperatures rising 70 degrees higher than we were experiencing a few days ago! What a crazy winter this has been so far.

Lady Liberty returns

Top of the Statue of Liberty on Lake Mendota with the Red Gym in the background

Trees and sky reflecting on a still pond

With temperatures dropping down to -26(f) the past few days, I’ve been easing my cabin fever by looking at photos I took when the weather was just a bit warmer. I captured this scene while hiking in Northern Wisconsin last September.

Another storm

A row of snow covered pine trees with the sun starting to shine through the clouds in the background

Second major winter storm we’ve had in five days. I give this most recent snowstorm a rating of 2.3/2. That’s two-point-three hours of manual labor and two ibuprofen.

Small tree branches with the shadow of two tree trunks on the snow

One of my favorite sights of winter are the deep contrasting shadows bare trees make on fresh snow.
