We spent a couple days in northern Michigan this week. Our goal was to photograph some of the foliage. There was spots where it was already brown, but we found some great places to photograph. The video below has many more photos and some drone footage. I hope you enjoy. (Teresa took this photo .. one of my favorites).

I think I am going to work on the format of the vlog .. I want to make some changes. I am founding it to be a great way to share more photos, and I love making videos, especially with the drone, but it needs more personality. I’m still trying to figure it out, but you will see some changes over the next few weeks. I also think I may only publish twice a week.

Be sure to send me your feedback if you have any ideas.

I took this photo while I was hiking at Sycamore State Park. The temperature was about 36°F but the water was still warm. The results .. this amazing view. Stay warm!

River reflections

There weather has taken a turn this week. Today it didn’t make it to 60°F, and it looks like the next few days it will be cool, if not cold.

I shot this photo with my iPhone. I held it close to the water of the Miami River, and shot toward the east shore. I wanted to capture the reflection of the trees and the clouds. I managed to get the blue sky too. Love this shot.

Sometimes I find that I need to get close to nature and spend time reflecting as well. Life is complicated at times, and clarity seems to come when I am quiet and reflecting.

Sunrise and shadows ..

FullSizeRender.jpg

This photo was captured while I was on an early morning hike. It was a morning early last week while Teresa was on a walk with a friend. I didn’t feel like going far, so I was hiking along the river. This sunrise was amazing, and the shadows were so cool. This shot was simple, but sometimes the simple photos are the best. Life is like that, my friends. Keep it simple and enjoy the moments!

The video is a little early ... Teresa and I went to this ballon glow Friday night, and again Saturday evening. Since our 8th grandchild was born last night, we may not have time to get a new video for Tuesday, so enjoy this. It’s different than our normal nature video, but it was fun.
