Ice Formations

I shot these photo's in late March early in the morning at Happy Hollow Park. As you can see it was a cold morning. I remember my fingers being numb even from the short exposure to the air. I was wearing some thick wool mittens that the finger part folded back to allow you to use your fingers.

 

 

 

 

 

Here is a final photo to warm you back up. It is not a great shot but the red glow of the early morning sun looks nice.

The Wabash is overflowing again

 

The Wabash River is overflowing again due to some heavy rain we had a few days before the weekend. So I was not able to hike the trails because they were under water. After the weekend the Wabash started to go back down, but it rain some more and it is going backup up. It is supposed to peak in the the next couple of days. More likely the hiking trails will still be under water this weekend as well.

I was able to take a few interesting shots around the bridges this weekend. But first here are a few photo's from the week before.

 

 

 

 

 

 

And now some photo's from last weekend. I was walking along and under the three bridges that pass over the Wabash in the downtown area.

Wood you like to see some pictures?

This past Saturday was a sun shinny warmish day. Around 60 degrees. I hiked at Happy Hollow Park for a couple of hours. Here are a few wood themed pictures.

Two for one

Destination: Wabash Heritage Trail, South leg / Happy Hollow Park
Miles hiked: 8/6
Camera: Nikon D40
Lens: Nikkor 50mm 1:18 non DSLR lens.

No strong theme for this Saturday or Sunday's photo's and not a lot of photo's taken. So I will be combining the two days into one post.

This first photo is of a fish skull I found. I brought it home. I will clean up and use it in for some still life photo's later. Then I will add it to my Halloween collection. It is most likely an Asian Carp of some kind.

Old Standard Oil Gas station next to where I work. It's a mini museum now. I plan on getting better shots of this later.

Some fungus growing on a rotting tree. I was disappointed with this. The color did not come out well. The colors were much brighter.
