Wisconsin Winter

Family and I decided to visit relatives in Wisconsin between Christmas and New Years. Having not been to Wisconsin in the winter for seven years, I was anxious to photograph the rolling, wintry countryside and visit many of the places I like to photograph in warmer weather. As chronicled on this blog in the past, Madison is full of colorful characters, beautiful farmland, vibrant colors and endless photo opportunities....In the SUMMER that is! So the characters are not to be found but I did find plenty of "color" to photograph. Here are a few shots that I like. Keep in mind that 5 degrees and wind coming of the lake is not the best for working on techniques, bracketing or doing anything other than point and shoot, so some of these could have certainly been refined a bit. Photo above is rows of Sailboats stacked on top of each other facing the lake waiting for a better day. In an otherwise dead landscape, Much color to be found around the Sailing Club.
