Last night's sunset looked promising, then fizzled out almost immediately. The blue/golden hour saved the evening.
You never know who you'll come across on the Sheboygan riverfront.
The image was created using Photoleap Cloud Wanderer and photos that I have taken.
As we took an evening riverfront walk I spied a family of ducks gathered on a piece of driftwood next to a dock.
The trio posted were taken Thursday morning in fisheye lens mode. It was good to walk along the riverfront in sunshine after the last few days. The river is the highest it has been in decades.

Strong gale winds are pushing the Sheboygan River flow away from Lake Michigan. This is causing lakefront flooding and ice packs. Here the areas are clearly defined.
Tuesday morning, after stopping to pick up coffee beans, I walked along the northern side of the Sheboygan riverfront.

On a typical Saturday these parking spaces fill rapidly as people visit Prohibition Bistro for Italian food and drink. This Saturday the only cars were those of the reduced staff of workers and customers who came to collect their take-out orders.
I have mixed feelings about this scene. I am glad to see that people are following the concepts of social distancing and self-isolation. I miss the vibrancy of the street activity, worry about these small businesses and their workers, and, like everyone else wonder when and if life will return to normal.
Sheboygan, Wisconsin has had a tradition in recent years where those who dock their ships in port decorate them the night before the 4th of July celebration. For some reason, even though there are no gondolas, it's called "Venetian Night".
A highlight of the event was this ship decked out in Green Bay Packer logos. (Packer fans are sometimes referred to as "Cheese Heads", thus the tile of this photo.)
Eileen, this one is for YOU!
Autumn is officially here and this trio of photos acknowledges this transition. A nearly empty beach, charter fishing boats on their last days of riverfront docking, and fading flowers are all local aspects of the changes that this transition brings. Soon there will be brilliant fall colors. To every thing turn, turn, turn, there is a season....
Both the river and the lake have been very volatile for the last week. Strong winds on Lake Michigan have created waves that have pounded the western shore and sent surges of water along the riverfront. Today's calmness is a welcome relief.
