Yesterday was a sunny winter's day, so I decided to wander along the dunes cordwalk at Kohler-Andrae State Park (Wisconsin). This view was seen from the end of a cordwalk at the top of a dune that overlooks the beach . If you look to the left, you'll have a glimpse of Lake Michigan. Rumor has it that the dunes will be snow-covered again in the near future.
I hadn't visited Kohler-Andrae State Park (Wisconsin) since before our Florida trip. As there was no storm or severe wind chill, I decided to do a little exploration this morning. The park has many different ecosystems-I wandered along the dunes that overlook the western shore of lake Michigan. There were no woodland creatures about, but there was faint sunlight and beautiful snowy landscapes to appreciate.
I chose to shoot winter in b&w.

In response to a B&W photo challenge on Facebook by Eric Dugan [www.flickr.com/photos/ericdugan/] and Jay Huang[www.flickr.com/photos/50663863@N02/] I converted the Door County road shot to monochrome and played with the contrasts. Any thoughts on this vs. the color version? Very different effects.

Built in 1892-1894, this Romanesque Revival-style building was designed by Allan Conover and Lew Porter to serve as an armory and gymnasium for the University of Wisconsin. The building is clad in red brick with a red medina sandstone base, arched bays, cylindrical towers with crenellated parapets, stepped gables, brick corbeling, and clerestory windows on the side of the building’s gabled roof. The building is a contributing structure in the Bascom Hill Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974, and was listed individually on the National Register of Historic Places and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1993. The building today houses various university departments.

CN 3069, an ET44AC chosen to wear the colors of Wisconsin Central, leads intermodal Q117 through Mundelein, IL, on former WC trackage. Note the IPO 25 logo on the nose.
To my knowledge, this is the unit's second run as a leader, first in the Chicagoland area. Well done, CN!
Wisconsin assigns county roads alphabetically, not numerically. This is really different than what I am used to in the Pacific Northwest.
