The Mackinac Bridge always appears as a magnificent guardian of the Straits of Mackinac. Although I have seen it many times, each time makes a deep impression. It’s almost 5 miles long and 552 feet high. It also serves nearly 12,000 vehicles each day.

Park on a Lake My walkabout trail ended on the lakeshore across from a nice park on the lake. Sometimes, the image reflects the quiet as well as the color; nice end to a nice day.

Lone Tree on a Lake What’s more independent than a lone tree presiding over a beautiful lake on a beautiful Independence Day weekend.

Winter Survives Go far enough north; winter still survives. Sooner rather than later, winter will say goodbye for several months.

A Winter Morning, just after sunrise, seemed like a good time to try more film photos. The Kodak Signet 30, a 35mm film camera with a 44mm f2.8 lens and FujiColor Pro 400H film makes a very nice image even after converting the color to black & white in post. This digital image was produced at the time the film was developed. Since this image was delivered as a JPG, it did not need much post processing.
These older cameras like the Kodak Signet 30 really make the photographer think about what he is about to do as he prepares to make a photograph. It does not have a light meter or rangefinder. So, the photographer must use his best guess of the distance while making the depth of field large enough and the shutter speed fast enough to keep the subject sharp. And, the photog must determine aperture and shutter speed for the best exposure.
