It’s all in the details (black and white photography)

Took this while sitting and taking a load off at the Fall Festival in Sister Bay, Wisconsin.
Reflection and shadows
Their worlds intertwined

I took this photo the other day of a chandelier at a wedding venue
This is a photo I took and decided to add some words to go with it, I don’t do this very often but thought it was fitting.
Took a walk for a 48 mile change that I’m doing in September for military vets to help with PTSD and suicide prevention. I have 8.48 miles in so far so I have a few to go, but not to bad for being 3 days in…I’ll keep chugging along.
Today I did 5.29 miles and did a long walk around the a big block in town, so I decided to take some photos during my walk.
I love taking black and white photos and I can walk the same path every day and find something new to take a photo of that catches my eye.
Today I went down to Milwaukee to work for the day; and on the way to lunch I was able to stop at a bridge and take a couple shots of the Milwaukee area, that is Milwaukee Wisconsin.
In the second photo I captured a few people enjoying the beautiful day and taking kayaks out.
Milwaukee was recently voted one of the ugliest cities, so I think it is nice to show the nice side of the city.
The other day I shared a little nostalgia with a poem, so today I thought I would share a little photo nostalgia. I took this photo in 2017 at a little piece of the Wolf River in Wisconsin….my home state.
Awake Dream
Here, sitting alone on the peaceful pier, water flows calms restless nerves
Natures beauty serves to provide a loneliness that is welcome
Taking away the cares of the busy street and city near by
Keeping in beat, the music is only mine
To sit alone is not so bad it does seem
This peacefulness, my wide awake dream

Guarded
Flowers beyond reach in a field surround by the city streets,
a fence guards them
Guards then from the urban sprawl
Wild they grow
Far from trampling feet
Let them grow beyond this fence
Let their beauty show
