Wednesday, I found myself heading to East Peoria, IL to photograph the Festival of Lights. I also photographed this festival back in 2009, but it had been a few years ago so I decided to check out the new additions to the show this year. I've posted many photos of the event on my blog.

12/25/11--Christmas & Pets: 2011
During the Christmas holiday I shot some photos of our family pets as they opened up their Christmas gifts a few days ago. These photos were shot in my hometown of Kewanee, IL. I've posted a handful of the photos on my blog. Posted: Travis Carlson--TornadoVortex.net 12/30/11

11/23/11--Dense Fog: Peoria, IL
On an early November morning, I ventured out to snap a few photos of some dense fog that was beginning to burn-off outside Peoria, IL. Unfortunately, I had to go to work on this day otherwise I would have made a much larger effort to photograph other surrounding locations on this morning. Anyhow, I've posted a few photos from this early morning on my blog. Posted: Travis Carlson--TornadoVortex.net 12/30/11
On Christmas Eve, I spent most of the night photographing some star trails on a chilly December night outside Kewanee, IL. Other than the chilly-air it was a perfect night to capture some star trails before the Christmas holiday. I posted a few of my favorite photos on this night on my blog.
