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
One of my favorite places in Copper Harbor, Michigan to visit is a place called Bare Bluff. After hiking straight up you get to the top and get to see a view that seems to goes on forever. Although it is easy to take a shot of the wide expansive view. I choose to zoom in on the interesting bays along the tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula. I called this photograph "Boat House Haven" because in the last bay you can see a boat house that has quite the location and view.
In photography there is a term called the rule of thirds. This "rule" says images are best seen when you put your subject in 2/3rds of your image. While this is the case for most photographs, rules are meant to be broken. For example; I couldn't cut off the emerging fall colors in Copper Harbor and I couldn't cut off the view of this unique sunrise. I tested cutting one out for the other and it just wasn't the same. I liked the colliding beauty of the two.
