Spring…water is in motion, moving to merge with the greater body and on to the sea.

Fragile Moments

Spotting the simple aspects of nature requires a keen sense of awareness in the moment. I discovered this fragile bit of ice close to melting away on a warm, early spring afternoon. Shortly after taking the shot, I broke through the ice on Lake Superior. Lucky for me I was close to shore and the water was shallow. In the moment, my first concern was for my camera, which I was able to keep safe and set on a rock as I extricated myself from the ice.

A spring morning, new growth, a rising sun. It’s magic!

The early bloomers of spring always serve as a reminder that winter is fading away, more is yet to come and soon the garden will be filled with a riot of color.

The Tenuous Edge of Seasons

Sliding slowly toward a new state of physicality,

bonds loosen, water shifts from one state to another,

winter loses its grip and we ease into spring.

Marching Onward

Posted on April 1, 2016 by Northern Visions Media

My month long visit home has ended and I have returned to Minneapolis again. Sports photography begins at the end of next week and my sister is arriving from Florida later today. She claims she likes taking a break in cooler weather, but she may get more than she bargained for on this trip.
During the month of March I was able to accomplish many things that had been awaiting my attention, however, there is always much more for when I return home next. I managed to sneak in a few photo trips while home, some of the results were shown in previous blog posts. As I was kind of quiet during the past month, I thought I would share a few glimpses of how I spent some of my time in the Duluth area. The image with the blue bridge highlights my upcoming summer adventure. I will be a seasonal operator of the bridge, which opens to allow the tour boats, fishing charter boats and private craft to pass on their way out to Lake Superior. Part of the job is to be an ambassador for the city of Duluth. You can be sure I will always have a camera with me on this job.
