Shoe on Frozen Shore - Images of Ice with Sunrise as a backdrop on Lake Michigan in March 2009 - A New Soul Amp Song to Twist Up Your Strange Mind

Here's stange photo of a shoe on Lake Michigan's shore in the morning. Next to it is a bit of ice shaped like Texas, right? Quite odd. Also, check out the bits of ice that form weird natural sculptures through wave action. The sunrise adds to the shots, do you think.

Listen for the shoe mention in this new song, "Big Flat Blaze":

Photos of Natural Ice Sculptures on Lake Michigan at Sunrise in the winter of 2009... New Big Fat Blaze Song from Soul Amp... Ice, Colors, and Music

Ah, more natural ice sculptures on Lake Michigan at sunrise from March 2009. It is so interesting the way nature creates stuff we can appreciate no matter how fleeting it and we are. So grab this moment and enjoy. And check out the crazy shoe (which is kind of sad, huh?) and listen closely to the song cause this very shoe gets mentioned. Can't tell you what the song means exactly, because that would be giving away too much, but you can piece together bits of it if you listen closely.

So here's the debut of the new song, "Big Flat Blaze":

Here's a batch of delightful Autumn/Fall Foliage Photos from 2008 Wisconsin (I'll be posting the 2009 ones soonish). And a Lovely New Song

Oh yes, Autumn is breathing down are necks already and it's just the end of August. We got ripped off this summer. But if it had been hot, we'd be complaining about that too. So here's some fall foliage photos from last year in lovely Wisconsin (you really should all come up for a visit as Autum is gorgeous here).

Here you go. Here's a song about the end of a romance at the end of summer. Such is the human condition, eh?:

Images of Monarch Butterfly Migration in 2008 in Milwaukee, WI near the Milwaukee River in the Third Ward - And an Autumn Song to Download

Autumn is nearly upon us. Around this time last year we got to check out some of the Monarch Butterfly migration. I captured these photos of a couple of them and so I thought I'd share some them with you. These were taken on the Milwaukee River in the Third Ward on September 20, 2008.

Free music download here (written around that time and nice and long and mellow and cool):
