Reflections on the River

Beautiful evening reflections captured along the Ohio River in Madison Indiana.

The Ohio River along Madison has always made for some beautiful sunsets and sunrises over the years for me and this evening proved to be another example of that.

Madison Indiana Spring !!

Here is a beautiful variety of the wonderful scenes Madison Indiana has to offer in the early spring. The Broadway Fountain, Lanier Mansion and the River walk all offer a spectacular place to enjoy what nature has to offer us in early April.

If you are looking for a place for a weekend or longer trip, try Madison it is truly an amazing destination to visit !!

Calm before the Storm

Sitting here tonight waiting for the big one, the big one being a winter storm. According to the weather folk on social media this is going to be our biggest storm in quite a few years, since we really haven’t had a major accumulation in the past five years it shouldn’t be difficult to top it.

Our last really big snow was in 2004 I believe and topped out around twenty inches. I don’t think we beat that but you never know and if we do it should make for some crazy photography.

All these images I have posted here came from last week and that was just six inches so twelve plus will really make these more impressive. But with the weather you never know what it is going to happen so we will just have to see how it pans out.

Dark Sunrise

I captured this along the Ohio River this past fall. Usually sunrise images contain quite a bit of color but this one seemed to scream for a black and white conversion and I was happy to oblige.

The Ohio River has always seemed to present me with many wonderful compositions over the years and this one didn’t disappoint. The hours I have spent walking the riverfront looking for just that right image has always been a favorite past time of mine and hopefully it will be something I can continue for a long time.

There are so many moods that the river displays and no two sunrises are the same, if you happen to be in Madison Indiana you certainly couldn’t do better than taking a sunrise walk along the river and enjoy one the rivers beautiful moods !!

Stepping into 2021

It is time to take a step into a New Year. I know 2020 was a rough time for everyone many of us lost loved ones and have suffered from not only Covid but other circumstances as well.

I lost my brother this past year not to Covid, but I do know many who have had family pass from it. Financial hardships have also been a major problem as well.

It is real easy to simply blame a number but with everything that has happened maybe a new number is what we all really need to begin to move on to better time and place.

I wish you and your loved ones a Happy New Year and may this New Year but much better than the old one !!
