Well, I never thought I would be photographing beautiful ice on the Lake Superior shoreline this late in the spring! Speaking of spring, only 4 more days and it will be one whole month since spring officially arrived. Not like you can tell around here this year. Heck, in the past week we've received about 16 inches of new snow! At least we can take comfort in the fact that it melts quickly this time of year. Before we know it we will be getting rain instead of snow and everybody will be complaining about the rain :-)
The photo you see here was taken this morning along the shores of Grand Portage Bay, just a half mile from our house. Yesterday all these ice chunks were pushed into the bay by the waves, making for an incredible foreground for a landscape image. We took a few photos of these ice chunks last night but the sky was pretty overcast and gray. This morning at sunrise the sky was much prettier! I am as anxious as everybody else for the snow and ice to melt and be gone for the year, but in the meantime as long as there are still scenes like this around, I am going to enjoy them while they last!
