Minnow Shack, a photo from Wisconsin, Midwest

Photographer's Note

The Minnow Shack is a nostalgic fixture in the Northwoods of Wisconsin on Star Lake.

The image was taken on an overcast day which actually made a more even-toned outcome of the building. The downside was a white sky with no detail.

Great shot. It almost says that it's an old photo scanned in. I think there was a segment on PBS about this property and owner wasn't there? If memory serves me, it was an elderly lady that ran the place and she had all old memorabilia inside. A boat launch and bait stop. I love the back roads of America, there is such history to see if you look.

Again, great shot.

Dear Larry
just back from treaklens with the same one in colour... not easy to make a choice but here the B&W and classic POV are really in connection with the subject. A very touching shot.
