Beware of Sarah, for her very step shakes the heavens and the earth!

This lovely portrait of the lovely Sarah was taken at Copper Falls bluff, one of my favorite locations in the whole world.

The Lovely Sarah, eyes and all!

This is my second try -- the first is below, but the focus was somewhat imperfect.

... and the original, not quite perfect.

Sarah is AMAZED at her chili. Or is it SCARED? FRIGHTENED? FREAKED OUT?!?!

Whatever way it is, she's a great sport for letting me post this. :P

Our old friends Kyle and Amy were up visiting the Copper Country last week. Their wee one, Nicholas, is very interested in the straps to his chair!

We had a great time hanging out at Kyle and Amy's camp site, eating delicious camping foods (i.e. smores), and playing games.

My housemate, in his stylish t-shirt, smoking a stylish pipe, while grilling some stylish brats.

Me: "Some days my photos are good. Other days, I take photos of Adam."

Adam: "And those photos are awesome!!"

119/365 - Perceptions

Today I had the pleasure of running into my old friend Sue. Sue founded and directed The Troupe, Michigan Tech's improv group. I was a member of the troupe for many years, and in that role, she was an amazing mentor and friend.

Now that she's retired, Sue (among other things) creates beautiful felted works of art -- including this one, "Perceptions", which recently won the jury's first place award at the Great Lake Showcase. Everything you see is felted wool -- yes, even the rocks!

K is for Kiss -- or almost a kiss. Sarah and I had a lovely weekend in Minocqua, including a snowshoe trip at Star lake. We paused to stare at each other, and then make funny faces!

39/365 - Reflected

Me, reflected in my laptop screen.

It's me -- taking a photo of myself -- reflected in my laptop screen. On the screen (although you can't see it, because the brightness was turned down) was a photo of me, taking a photo of myself, reflected in my laptop screen...

Also -- this is unedited, except for bringing up the contrast in the screen a little.

Here I am with the lovely Sarah at the Camp Randall Classic -- an outdoor ice hockey game in Madison, Wisconsin. We had fun, but you can't quite tell just how cold we were!

17/365 - Sarah at the Lake

Pines on a field of snow, overlooking a blue Lake Superior.

I "missed" a day -- not because I didn't take photos, but because the lovely Sarah and I were taking a brief vacation together. Here's proof -- a photo from our snowshoe hike around Fallison Lake, in the Northern Highlands - American Legion State Park of Northern Wisconsin. It was a beautiful, sunny day, and we enjoyed the late afternoon hike thoroughly. Now, back to school again...

Sarah at the Cliffs

Sarah, wrapped up for the cold, with pines in the background.
Sarah enjoying a snowshoe in the cliffs.

The lovely Sarah -- who you may have heard of -- went snowshoeing with me, up to the cliffs, a few weekends ago. We had a lovely time, especially when I discovered how much she likes to stand under big pine trees and shake them until all the snow falls down on her!

Here she is, just after one of those silly tree-shakings, as lovely as ever!

Peekaboo!

A side portrait of Sarah with an arm over her face, only one eye peeking out.
I see you!

I'm not normally a portrait photographer, but my lovely girlfriend Sarah has made me start to rethink things. We had a lot of fun up at Quincy, wandering among the abandoned buildings and trying out funny poses. This is one of my favorites -- hopefully there will be more to follow!

Ice Bucket!

My dad grinning at his Christmas morning ice-bucket gift.
Yay, an ice bucket for Christmas!

My dad, after years of being ice-bucket-less, has now been en-bucketed. It was a glorious day in the Clark household.
