The Calatrava-designed Milwaukee Art Museum is spectacular when illuminated at night. I was a bit surprised to see it look so lit that night. (Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 2025)

A surprise encounter with a Monarch butterfly having a grand time at the beach. (Fox Point, Wisconsin,, 2025)

We were driving back to our hotel on the Snæfellsnes peninsula, we were tired but we still opted to take a quick detour to to see Svöðufoss. It was one of those late afternoons when the light does more work than the waterfall. (Snæfellsnes, Iceland 2024)

This is my favorite photo of Gullfoss. Yesterday’s classic view is good, but this one reminds you of the power of water as the mist rises over the bank and the water continues down the Hvítá River. (Gullfoss, Iceland, 2024)

If you have been to Iceland, you have probably been here and this is the “classic view.” It’s a day trip from Reykjavik and a stop on the Ring Road. I’ve been there a number of times. This time it was fall and the grasses had turned amber along the Hvítá River. (Gullfoss Falls, Iceland,…
