During one of our first spring-like April days in Milwaukee, I ventured to the lakefront for a few minutes during sunset. Took some stills with my 5dmk3 and processed them in Lightroom.
Downtown Milwaukee. Plus excellent use of foreground. Also, clouds.
Not sure what this plant is. But it’s backlit.
Not sure the official term on the “leaves” here, so I called them “Whisps.”
Downtown Milwaukee. Plus trees that haven’t decided it’s spring yet.
OpenX Photo Shoot
I recently did a photo shoot for Forbes #7 upcoming corporation, OpenX, who handle online advertising. Journal Communications (which includes the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) uses OpenX software. OpenX wanted a candid shoot of the Journal Communications employees in action.
Below are some of my favorites from the shoot, and you can see 16 of my favorites in the Flickr Gallery.
Entrance to the Journal Communications building:
3 Journal workers, who were all easy-going and had a great sense of humor, pretend to work, while Amy from OpenX’s Pasadena location is in the foreground:
I think this image can apply to a lot of different situations. But he’s just setting a projector:
Journal employee in their lobby, that they in actuality like never go to, as it’s really just for guests. The window-light really brought out her beautiful sky-blue eyes:
Pretty cool looking lobby. These guys are also pretty funny:
They think just ’cause they’re walking away from me that I’ll stop taking photos. I’ll show them!:
If you weren’t sure where we were, this photo is for you 🙂 :

New “Milwaukee Blues” Photo
Above is a new photo for my “Milwaukee Blues” Photo Series.
The image is an HDR black-and-white split-toned image of a median I’ve shot before, but now with blue snow instead of sky. It’s a night scene in the heart of downtown Milwaukee, WI. The bench shadows and bird statues are both in V formation, giving the photo its title, “Snowy Cass Median V’s.”

Milwaukee Blues (Photo Series)
“Milwaukee Blues” photo series started organically. I was hired to shoot video (taking stills for myself as I shot) of notable (or just unique or beautiful) Milwaukee landmarks and recognized that there were many different and beautiful blues throughout the photos.
More photos in the series will be posted soon as well. Below are four stills from “Milwaukee Blues.”
