He just kept doing his dance.
Another trip up to northern Wisconsin. They had a very nice warm spell, most of the snow melted and the air smelled like October. I took all of these shots in one afternoon.

I finally had some time to work on some of my photos from last summer. Here are a few of my favorites. I find sometimes it helps to not look at the lot of them for awhile, when you come back you have a whole new perspective.

Spent a little time up in Butternut, Wisconsin over the holiday weekend. Took some pictures from the window of the house we rent when we are there. It was cold and snowy and only the chickadees were venturing out. Caught this little guy on the bird feeder. It is a challenge photographing these nervous little critters, the never stop moving. I shot one good shot and another which I thought was funny because everything is moving.
Just finished editing my Wyalusing State Park photos. Click on each photo for a larger view. I have reduced these in size greatly. The originals are high resolution and suitable for large format printing and framing. If interested in purchasing any of these photos please contact me at webmaster@greenbeetlephoto.com. I use a high quality processing service which can produce archive quality prints.

I just purchased an Olympus Zuiko 70-300mm f/4.0-5.6 ED Lens. This is definitely in the lower to middle end for Olympus four-thirds lenses but the reviews were good and the price was right. I was not disappointed. After a chilly trip to Wyalusing State Park on the border between Wisconsin and Iowa overlooking the confluence of the Wisconsin and Mississipi rivers I am a fan. First a few of my shots from this weekend and then a little more about this lens.

The asters are blooming here in southern Wisconsin. The later rains made for some spectacular colors and an amazing number of blooms.
