Even though it started to rain, snow then sleet, I didn't stop looking for the beauty of fall. I have always loved seeing the contrast between white birch trees with fall colors but had never found that ideal shot I had sought after for years. I finally found the scene I had envisioned and the rain/wetness actually aided in its beauty. This beautiful scene was found in Marquette, Michigan
Even though the sun disappeared over the horizon, darkness was held off by two lights protecting boaters by aided in their safe return from the inland sea of Lake Michigan
Fall always seems to bring dramatic skies, which is perfect for photographers because we get to capture the emotion of the atmosphere and the beauty of the location. While taking this shot it was raining lightly and the wind was bringing large waves to shore. The clouds were so low and so dark but it added a nice contrast to the white waves crashing.
