A splash of cold water soaking the base of the Frankfort Lighthouse in Frankfort, Michigan. I loved the contrast of everything white in this view against the colorful Lake Michigan water.
Welcoming boaters into the harbor of the Grand River, the outer Lighthouse in Grand Haven, Michigan stands 42 feet tall and was first lit in 1905. This unique view is possible because the catwalk has been removed to do repairs to pier. I loved the reflection of the lighthouse in the wave puddles.
A hole in the clouds allowed for the sun to put a spotlight on the rocks at the base of Miner's Castle at the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. It only happened for a few seconds at a time as the cloud cover was pretty heavy. The first time it happened I was facing the wrong way so I patiently waited for another hole in the clouds and just hoped it would hit the rocks again. Luckily after about 20 minutes it happened again and was well worth the wait.
