New Beginnings Celebrating the arrival of spring. While I have definitely been enjoying its arrival by photographing the sprouting greens and blooming flowers around me, I am having trouble keeping up with the editing.  My desktop seems to be getting slower and slower, to the point that I can no longer hold off on doing something about it…

Swept Away Sheboygan, WI I woke up early on Saturday morning hoping to catch the sunrise by the South Pier.  I was instead greeted by heavy fog.  To make matters worse, it was very windy and cold.  After a few minutes of walking around, I noticed that condensation had formed on the surface of my camera.  Disappointed, I turned around and headed for the car, since I didn’t want the camera to get water damage. As I headed back home, I decided to quickly check out the lighthouse (I really didn’t want to go home empty handed, especially since I woke up at 5).  Luckily by then, the fog had subsided a bit.  I stood by the edge of the pier on some rocks, and took a few shots.

Garden Ganache An assortment of Kohler Chocolates I had a discussion with someone once about whether food can look good in black & white.  As part of a photography project, this is my attempt to take on this challenge. It at least gave me an excuse to buy a box of chocolates from the market.  Besides looking good, these hand painted ganache chocolates are also melt-in-your-mouth delicious.

On Display The peacocks took over the Milwaukee Zoo over the weekend.  They were with the camels, with the rhinos, even the black bear!  This fellow decided to give us a good show, walking around in full regalia.  One thing I learned is that peacocks can give out a loud (almost intimidating) shriek.  A call to arms maybe?
