Sinister Sea Smoke

















Yesterday's sunrise over the lighthouse in Grand Marais, MN.  The sea smoke rising off the lake was unbelievable.  So was the cold.  The temperature was minus 19 degrees when this photo was made and was accompanied by some very strong winds which seemed to be coming from every direction.  I remember hearing that the wind chill was between 50 and 60 below yesterday.  I purposely exposed this image so it would come out dark like this.  I really like the ominous feel that the dark exposure gives the photo.
