On some days, Isle Royale looks like it's not that far away at all. Yesterday was one of those days. I made these photos on my way to work. The Island hovered above the horizon and certainly appeared to be closer than 20+ miles away. When I drove past the Susie Islands overlook, Rock of Ages lighthouse looked like it was only a couple of miles beyond Big Susie Island, when really its between 13 and 14 miles from Big Susie. Of course, these photos were made with a telephoto lens, which further aids in distant objects appearing closer than they do with the naked eye.
