Re-Visit...

Blogging the Duluth trip made me want to re-visit my solo Duluth trip from 2007. More beauty captured ~ Enjoy!


The view from my room..... Yum!


More fog! And wind, and waves....






















The lift-bridge at night + ore ship = Love :)










From atop the Radisson


Some glimmer

First Weekend Away Since Babies!

"Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern." Alfred North Whitehead

My husband and I haven't had a weekend away alone in over 3 years ~ It was time! We spent Labor Day Weekend camping in Duluth, MN.
Some gorgeous scenery!!
Fog + Sun + Lake Superior + Lighthouses + Ore Ships + Lift Bridge + Full Moon + Campfire + Views from "Above" = Fab Photo Opps! I see the world as though I'm looking through a view-finder.
Cheers~




"layers of visibility"








Some fun :)
























At first glance, appears to be a vertical photo of a beach... look clooooser. ;) [Ore ships out in the fog!!]


Lake Walk












It's a tradition :)


Fall colors starting to sprout...


Atop the Radisson - Harbor View Restaurant




Wine & our cozy chair.












The full moon and the campfire - captured!


We're on the Dury bike - there I am in the reflection...


The bike




The local kids go out and jump from this structure.


We took a carriage ride along the lakefront... Here is our horse, Willy.


Sun began to set...


They have big Dury bikes to rent - look at that fam!








3 Ore Ships, 2 Lighthouses, 1 sailboat...








The moon was RED while low...


The view from Spirit Mountain by night


Such fun!!

This Get-Together IS Great!

My Miscellaneous Mayhem blog is precisely that - and so a good venue for keeping up on my happs outside of weddings. I thrive on maintaining a balance of some accord, and find that I'm at my happiest and most productive when I do. So while I LOVE shooting weddings in a candid and artistic fashion, I also love many varied aspects of life - I will continue to share bits and pieces of some such aspects of life that encompass fun photo opps as well. Cheers!


The MN State Fair is a fun venue for photographing the happs... particularly when you have tiny tots along :)







My daughter & I in the back - Photo by husband Joel


Ferris Wheel and Bubbles - what a joy!


Swoosh!


Peek... that's Joel.


My youngest is so little that you can only see her hand in this photo - sticking straight up as if to say "I'm here too!"~












Did I mention I love cows??










Can't wait 'til next year to take more slide photos WHILE sliding! Whoohoo!
