It's been a little less than a month since my last blog post. Time
sure does fly. In the past month it's been quite busy with a school fire
in Oconto Falls, car accidents, a murder in our county, a winter pow
wow by an area tribe, two snow storms and now spring-like temperatures.
While I would like to post all those photos on this blog, it
would be way too much, so I've picked out two of my favorite images over
the past month to share.
The first one is an image I took while at the Menominee Tribe's
2nd Annual Winter Welcom Pow Wow at the end of February. I got the
opportunity to bring my son, Jeremiah, along with on this assignment. I
thought it would be good for him as his social studies class had just
discussed Native American culture. He was amazed by why he saw with the
colorful outfits, the drums and the entire atmosphere.
The most difficult part of the pow wow, however, was the
lighting. It was in the Menominee Casino Resort and while it's a
beautiful building, the lighting isn't the best for still photographers.
I like this photo because you have the young one drinking out of his
cup while watching the grand entry.
The second image I'm posting here from the past month, I
actually just snapped this week. It is of a construction worker welding
steel frames together for an expansion at Reinhart FoodService, Inc. in
Shawano. The skies were gloomy, but the sparks coming from the welder
and the man's orange shirt pop out.
Enjoy the warm temperatures!
