Scenes of Lake Superior
Lake Superior is notorious for its shipwrecks … big and small. Dad took a photography tour around the Great Lakes and found this wreck along the shore of the Big Lake.

A Photographer’s Dream
Stunning, spectacular, striking. What word would you use to describe Dad’s image of the Upper Antelope Canyon in Arizona?
Sunset on the Mississippi River
Dad was a frequent visitor to Lock and Dam No. 14 near LeClaire, Iowa, on the Upper Mississippi River. It’s one of the best spots to see eagles feeding in the winter.
Fabyan Windmill
Dad explored the forest preserves around his house looking for interesting architecture along with the birds, flowers, and wildlife he loved. He found this gorgeous 19th century windmill at the Fabyan Forest Preserve in Batavia, IL.
Sunrise at Morton Arboretum
The Morton Arboretum in Lisle, IL was a favorite shooting spot of Dad’s. He could find flowers, wildlife, landscapes, even gorgeous sunrises, all in one spot.
Moon Watch
Dad took this photo of Peggy’s Cove Lighthouse during a trip to Nova Scotia in the fall of 2011. It’s one of 160 historic lighthouses in the province, located in a small fishing village.
Beach at Dawn
Thank goodness Dad was a morning guy! He never failed to catch a gorgeous sunrise. This was on a trip to the Oregon coast.
Alaska Outback
A favorite of Dad’s trips was a two-week odyssey in Alaska. Our mom joined him as they toured the state, including the outback.
Log Cabin on Pond
Most summer weekends, Dad went on day trips with his camera club buddies. This was taken at an Illinois park.
