Chicago Skyline from Olive Park

Deasy 2012 06 02 18 09 18 IMG 0052

This photo was taken on my iPhone and edited on my iPad in Snapseed (which is currently on sale for free in the App Store). It was shot from Olive Park just north of Navy Pier. Did you know Olive Park is named after Pfc. Milton L. Olive, III, the first African American to receive the Medal of Honor during the Vietnam War? According to Wikipedia: "At the age of 18, Olive sacrificed his life to save others by smothering a live grenade." Terrifying.

A Field With Trees

 

A Field With Trees

This was taken on Mother's Day in Plainfield, Illinois at my mom's house. This is the field behind her backyard. Behind the trees lies a river that her two dogs, Cooper and Indy, love to swim in and get really muddy. There's a lot hidden in those trees. Hawks, owl, deer, poison ivy, dogs, fire pits and long ago days hiding in the trees when we weren't so old. I even spotted a giant eagle in the sky that day. An angry (and much smaller) hawk was chasing it through the open skies. Beautiful.

Montrose Beach (09/27/09)

A collection of photographs from Montrose Beach. Brittiney and Courtney accompanied me that day and we enjoyed the beautiful early-fall weather. I think these pictures turned out really special. If you like them, please let me know in the comment below and perhaps consider purchasing a print to support my photography. If you're interested, please just ask me about print prices and sizes by sending me an email dane@danedeasy.com.
