Red River Valley Storm

I was in the beautiful Red River Valley just outside of Grafton, ND. There was a big beautiful cloud that blocked the sunset but created some nice looks. I decided to go a little bit crazy and use HDR to get the full impact of the clouds, the green crops, the sun's rays and the wet fields.

Summer Sunset

A summer sunset in the Red River Valley. This is a small river in ND and you can see how flat the valley is.

Summer at the Lake

Taken in Northern Minnesota at Cable Lake (next to Maple Lake). The sunset got better over time. The wind died down enough to allow for a nce reflection of the clouds and the trees.

Duluth Lighthouse Sunrise

The Lighthouse in Duluth. MN at Lake Superior. Another sunrise photo this time in early summer with the birds flying around and cresent moon visiable before sunrise.

Flatland sunset

on the plains of Eastern North Dakota, the lands are flat. This sunset in November had a stiff wind which caused some interesting cloud formations.

Park River Sunset

Colorful sunset of the Park River in eastern North Dakota, a few feet from confluence with the Red River. The flat plains leads to big skies

Railroad Sunset

An orange and blue sunset with box cars sitting at a grain elevator in Nash, North Dakota. I tried to use the train tracks as leading lines into the photo

Railroad Sunset

Old Kansas Farm

Found this old abandoned farm house that has seen better days while driving the back roads of Kansas. The Winter wheat field looked pretty and decided to try and capture the openness of the scene
