Still working on my Best of 2024 #photography post and here's another one - a fledgling Barred Owl! #Birding #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #birds #owls #wildlife - little did I know that this would be a two owl year!

When there is enough ice to harvest, folks up in Eagle River make this gorgeous thing. I think I'm gonna have to go up and have a look! #Wisconsin #Winter

Another shot that's making the list of my best work for 2024 - juvenile Bald eagle photographed from the kayak from about 30 feet away. What a big baby! #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #photography #birding #photographers #Wisconsin #raptors

Choosing my best work for the year and this one is definitely going in. It's a pair of Dot-tailed whiteface dragonflies mating. She is directly behind him in his claspers. Shot from the kayak. #dragonflies #photography #naturephotography #macrophotography #photographers

Haven't been out shooting much at all and blog posts are coming slower as a result. Working on Part 4 of my Tennessee Fall workshop. Here's Part 3 - wickeddarkphotography.com/2024/12/29/f...

Putting together a blog post about my experience making this style ring. Really a lot of fun even if it is fiddly. Need more process photos so another one will be in the works soon. The stones are Chalcedony and Pink Sapphire. Yummy! #metalsmithing #jewelry #silversmithing #handmade #jewelryarts
