Nightfall with Nancy
I'm a huge fan of soundtracks and scores. There are so many instrumental songs that evoke strong emotions in me, this is one of them: John Murphy- Adagio in D Minor, from the movie Sunshine (which I highly recommend).
I love when things just come together. Especially when it pertains to my photography.
This shot was taken over six months ago on a gorgeous 70 degree October night. Let me restate that...70 degrees, at night, in October, in Wisconsin....amazing.
Nancy and I had been wandering around the Fox River Trail, working on an assignment for class (which we both succeeded in of course :)). As we meandered discussion evolved, from school, to passions, to family, to life; fantastic conversation took place. The sun was beginning to set and Nancy accompanied me to a spot I had seen a few weeks before where I was fairly certain there was potential for a great shot.
There wasn't a cloud in the sky which worked perfectly with the tranquil feel of the overall image. I took a few snaps, and we talked. After a while Nancy left; I stayed and watched while the last of the light and color from the sun disappeared into twilight.

Close Encounters of the Barkhausen Kind
We heard a ton of this while walking and I think it's amazing: Ruffed Grouse Drumming (turn it up, it's low frequency).
Nick and I visited the Barkhausen Waterfowl Preserve twice last week. If you like a scenic walk through the woods I highly recommend their nature trails. We walked the (approx.) 4 mile trail, here's some shots from our meandering...
You can't see me...
This was the first time I've seen a crane relatively close, pretty awesome!

His Other Love
It's pretty obvious that Nick loves me, I mean we are getting married in 5 months so that must mean he at least likes me enough to stick around :). However that does not mean that I am the only love in his life, there's a little bit of space reserved for something else... his 4 wheeler.
This post is all about Nick and his Banshee...
That last picture is one of my favorites ever :)
