Spring Sunset in Downtown Milwaukee

During one of our first spring-like April days in Milwaukee, I ventured to the lakefront for a few minutes during sunset. Took some stills with my 5dmk3 and processed them in Lightroom.

Downtown Milwaukee. Plus excellent use of foreground. Also, clouds.

Not sure what this plant is. But it’s backlit.

Not sure the official term on the “leaves” here, so I called them “Whisps.”

Downtown Milwaukee. Plus trees that haven’t decided it’s spring yet.

“Thrash or Die” Concept Stills with Nick Sommer

Our goal was to shoot during blue hour/moon set of the Super Full Perigee Moon to try to get a real-life version of a 90’s large/low comic-book-style moon. But because half the sky was filled with clouds, the moon was blocked. So I shot at the sunset, which brought out even more beautiful and vibrant colors than other sunsets.

The shoot was for some concept stills of a project skater/actor/filmmaker Nick Sommer and I are looking at doing possibly.
