An old, abandoned school house on Montana's lonesome, grassy plains near Havre, Montana.

People move about the carnival rides and lights at the Dane County Fair in Madison, Wisconsin.

A pool player at the Paoli Pub outside of Verona, Wisconsin. I love the grittiness of bar life and how it can be portrayed in photographs.

A silhouette of the remains of the ship Peter Iredale, which ran near Warrenton, Oregon in 1906. The wreck of Peter Iredale at low tide is a wonderful place for a photographer.

A rope neatly twirled and tied-up at the U.S. Coast Guard station in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

A large tree stands watch over a snowy scene outside of Monroe, Wisconsin. This is one of those benefits of what I call "drive by shooting." Driving aimlessly along quite country roads can result in some rather spectacular scenes such as this one.

A pile of used tires in Oregon, Wisconsin. I don't know whose idea it was to stack these used tires this way, but it was pure genius. When I stumbled onto it I could not believe my eyes.

The spiral staircase in the Octagon House in Watertown, Wisconsin. Spiral staircases are a favorite of mine.

A view of a parking garage in downtown Madison, Wisconsin. This was one my first shot with my new manual Asahi Pentax Super Takumar 50mm f/1.4 lens. It's a little hard getting used to the manual focus, but it seems to take nice black and white images. It's cheap, too.
