Today it felt like spring may be on the horizon in an impossibly long winter. I haven't any fishing to report, so here are a few images from Wisconsin. Ice blue, clean water with trout in sight, and those wonderful air bubbles locked in ice we have all pressed our noses against the ice to see.
This week Chicago got more than 20 inches of snow accompanied by driving winds with gusts up to 70 miles per hour. I spent a good portion of it out in the snow and wind with my camera making what I could. I have always been one to make the best out of a great storm and I feel content knowing that I didn't waste a minute of the blizzard.
Here you can see the storm's progression at my front door.
The Louis Sullivan Church at Leavitt and Haddon near my house. A favorite of mine, my camera can't stay away from it. Captured here at dawn and again in the early afternoon.
This is a good friend of mine, Matt Messner who I do much of my photography with. We hiked the neighborhoods together in the worst of it and made a video which I will embed below.
