A Dream Theatre Come True
One of my dream theatres to play the film in when I was making it was the Al Ringling Theatre in Baraboo, Wisconsin. Why? Because it was an original “Movie Palace” when it opened in 1915, that it is a legendary landmark in Wisconsin, because it was built by the world famous Al Ringling. Yes … Continue reading
Friendly Manitowoc Goose
This goose (or is it geese) was rather welcoming to me taking a few photos of it next to the Badger Ferry in Manitowoc. He (she) seemed to think I was the unwelcomed guest, but ignored me all the same. * * *
The Awe Of Wisconsin Skies
The Awe Of Wisconsin Skies. Some of the amazing moments I’ve been able to capture while traveling around Wisconsin the past few months with the film. I think the beauty of these shots says more about the skies above Wisconsin and good timing than it does about any skill involved. Note that the third one down … Continue reading
Tripoli Shriners Building In MKE
Nothing much to say here, the building says it all. What a gorgeous work of architecture and craftsmanship. Another jewell I discovered in Milwaukee (aka MKE). * * *
Spreading The Cheesehead Love (Of Wisconsin)
The Green Bay Press Gazette, along with the Fond du Lac Reporter, and the Oshkosh Northwester, ran feature stories on the documentary this weekend. I knew it was coming, since we did the interview a couple of months back, but I had no idea that Gannett media would be so awesome as to publish it … Continue reading
On The Field At The Brett Favre’s Legends Game!
Oh what fun it is to be on the field with Brett Favre and other retired Packers. I guess making a documentary about Cheeseheads has some payoff, as it got me a media pass to the Brett Favre Legends Game at Camp Randall stadium in Madison. I took far too many pictures and shot a … Continue reading
Brett Favre Forever A Packers Hall Of Famer
After all those years of never getting to see Brett Favre at Lambeau Field, I was determined to be at his induction into the Green Bay Packers Hall Of Fame (and number retirement). Thanks to my pal Steve “The Owner” Tate for getting me a ticket (it was sold out months ago). I would have … Continue reading
Ten Wonderful Wisconsin Oddities
The title says it rather clearly, these are ten shots of some of the wonderful oddities I’ve encountered in my travels around Wisconsin making this documentary (that is now finished, working on release screenings and dates for this fall). There’s a little note below each photo to let you know a bit about it. * … Continue reading
Driving The Driftless
Here’s some killer shots I took while driving the Driftless Area recently. On a sunny day, it’s really hard not to take a good picture in this state. Honestly, it’s pointless in talking about it. Just look at the photos and you’ll see what I mean. So I’ll stop babbling now and let you enjoy … Continue reading
Peculiar Fun Art In Sturgeon Bay
I met Tim at his studio in Sturgeon Bay and found out that he was also one of the originators of the Ducktape Guys and their series of humorous books on all the things you can do with duck tape (and it’s a lot). Google them when you get the chance, but meanwhile, enjoy some of … Continue reading
