Mysterious Dancers


Walking my dogs each day has opened my eyes to the changes that occur in my little micro environment called Lake Park. Each season brings out slight nuances that appear due to time of day, light changes and of course, weather.

It was early January when unusual warmth came to Milwaukee and melted some of the snow. The melted moisture made its way into the atmosphere as ground fog and like magic, Lake Park became this ethereal, mystical landscape.

I took the dogs home and went back to the "dancers" I'd walked by moments ago. They they were, frozen in position while the ground fog moved around them. Keeping my "what if" philosophy going, I made images from different angles and positions. This one gave me that settled feeling of knowing that I had on film what I had in my heart.
