Foggy Day in Wisconsin Land
Today was one of those rare foggy days here in N.W. Wisconsin. On my way to and on my way back from Duluth, I took quite a few photos of the foggy landscapes. (I also went to Wisconsin Point and took more pictures of the lighthouse in the fog. I will publish those at a later time.) After taking the photos, I edited them in PaintShop Pro, by using special effects, such as sepia, infrared, or aging them. The process can take an ordinary photo and make it into an eye popping image. The process takes all of a minute or two. Think what could happen if God could transform us in that short of time. God's transformation of us takes a life time. The cemetary was in Wascott and the truck was north of Trego in an open field.

December Harvest Moon
For the past couple of years I have been waiting and wanting to to take photos of the full moon - especially a harvest moon. This seems almost impossible to capture. It is either cloudy or I am too late in taking the photo. The other problem, (one that almost all photographers experience) is that night shots are very hard to take, even with a DSLR camera. I knew that tonight there would be a full moon, so I prepared for it. Just as it was getting dark, I saw in the East that the moon was full and large and ready to be shot. I should have went out about 15 to 20 minutes earlier. By the time I found a place to shoot the moon, it was higher in the sky and much smaller. I did manage to take a few shots, but it wasn't exactly what I had planned. Maybe next month??? Here are a few of the shots I took. Either way we have an amazing God who has given us the blessing of a full moon and a great night sky. These shots were taken over the Earl Bridge about 5:30 pm tonight.
