Merry Christmas 2014
Dear WordPress family: may you have a blessed Christmas, filled with the love of family and friends. Thank you for being a part of my journey! God bless.
river and clouds
Back to one of my favorite parks: William G. Stratton State Park, Morris, Illinois. It is usually peaceful here and it is a nice place to see the seasons change. Looking forward to the beauty and color of the Fall season at this park!
towboat
The towboat actually pushes the river barge. Shouldn’t they call it a push boat?
1st X-T1
I recently sold all my Canon gear and the proceeds went towards the purchase of a Fujifilm X-T1 with Fujifilm XF 18-55 and XF 10-24 lenses. This is my first post using the new camera and 10-24mm lens. I have lots to learn, and lots of 5D MarkII images to post as well, but this is sort of a milestone for me. Hope you enjoy! This was taken in Morris, IL, along the banks of the Illinois River.
locks at starved rock
From the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico via the Mississippi River, the Illinois Waterway is a marvel of engineering and commerce. This is Lock and Dam No. 6 and is in the National Register of Historic Places. And that’s now more than you ever wanted to know about this particular location 🙂 Taken from one of the beautiful hiking trails at Starved Rock State Park.
the tree said to the light…
I wonder what the tree did say to the light… any thoughts?
tree-flections
I think I just created a new word! Taken at the Illinois River in Morris. I changed the background so you can see the entire image. Hope you have a great week!
signs of spring?
Taken this week at a park along the Illinois River. It was a cold, but sunny day, so off I went on my favorite activity: riding and taking pictures. Somewhere in this world there is a Spring looking for the Chicago area. To that Spring I say, “WE ARE HERE!”
…like a bridge over troubled waters….
Winter marches on… but that’s not to say that we have not had some beautiful days. This bitterly cold day was filled with gleaming, white sunshine, and the beauty of the Illinois River at Marseilles.
