A DJ for a radio station in central WI (Dave Kallaway) is an amateur photography addict and snaps some fantastic shots of local events. This was shot at Granite Peak Ski Hill in Wausau. My favorite thing he does is taking pics of rundown barns...he calls it Barn Porn. He has given me permission to share his photos!

Great line - my compliments to your photographer friend!
Granite Peak in Wausau is only an hour south of me.
BTW, are you a fellow Amateur? I have a 16" Dob
named Seymour (see more), Dawes limit is 0.29".

Not a photographer myself, just take pics of the grandkids when I can....

(6,613 posts)6. Not Stevens Point, that's way too far south.
Wausau's an hour south of me, and Stevens Point is south of that. I'm in a rural area close enough to civilization, but far enough for peace and quiet.
