Naturally Psychedelic

There was a crazy glow over Muskegon Lake before sunrise this morning.

There is no Photoshop gaming of saturations or hues on these, just a light level adjustment…which is a geeky way of saying…good morning!

Going Postal

A couple of questions come to mind…

1) No matter what the cosmetic issue that prompted this fix, could it really be less attractive than the repair itself?

2) Even assuming a quantity discount on the tape, wouldn’t a new box still have been cheaper?

Chris at Duck Lake, August 28, 2011

Lest anyone assume that Chris is a “poser”, the old girl isn’t ruminating on the Aurora’s rosy fingers welcoming a new dawn, but rather on the treat that was supposed to be thrown in that direction – but wasn’t.

Bike Trail Beauties

The computer seems to be cured of whatever evil malady had it spontaneously rebooting every fifteen minutes…really.

Now that the digital demon has been exorcised, here are pix from the last couple days. These are all flowers along the Muskegon Lakeshore Bike Trail.

It’s a beautiful place to walk. If you haven’t given it a try…do!

Duck Lake after the storm

The tail end of last night’s big storm left Duck Lake as dark as night during parts of this morning’s walk.

As might be expected, the threatening skies did little to dissuade Chris from swimming early and often.

Whitehall Walk

The colors were crazy just before this morning’s sunrise. So much so that the psychedelic purple picture of the lake hasn’t been “pushed” in Photoshop at all – just a minor level adjustment and unsharp mask.

The same is true for all of the flowers. These beauties are all as seen just up the hill from the White Lake Eagles.

A wonderful morning.

What seemed to be shaping up a clear sunny morning – at least before sunrise – turned out to be anything but. These are from before the thunderstorm.
