[singlepic id=1499 w=480] The South Manitou Lighthouse from the water upon arrival after one of our early and poorly coordinated (read: stupid) crossings. We actually saved most of the stupid for the return trip which had worse conditions and way more distance between the three of us such that we… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1498 w=480] A different view from St. Helena looking down the lifeboat launch ramp (with the group’s kayaks off to the side). Picture taken with Canon 350D, EF-S 18-55mm lens @ 24mm, f/16, 1/500 sec, ISO 400
[singlepic id=1497 w=480] Since we’re on a lighthouse tour here, this is the St. Helena Lighthouse found just west of the Mackinac Bridge on the North side of Lake Michigan. Picture taken with Canon 350D, EF-S 18-55mm lens @ 44mm, f/5, 1/1000 sec, ISO 100
[singlepic id=1496 w=480] Sunset from the Grand Marais campground during GLSKS 2007. Picture taken with Canon 350D, EF 70-300mm lens @ 300mm, f/7.1, 1/400 sec, ISO 100
[singlepic id=1495 w=480] Same Mosquito Chapel Beach as posted a few days back, but a few years later and in very different conditions. Picture taken with Canon 350D, EF-S 18-55mm lens @18mm, f/9, 1/200 sec, ISO 100
[singlepic id=1494 w=480] Happy 4th of July! More of a snapshot than a well composed photo, but this is the Au Sable Light House in Pictured Rocks. Still, it ended up pretty simple and clean so I like it. I didn’t plan it to be the 4th of July pic,… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1493 w=480] The dunes along Lake Superior’s Southern shoreline in Pictured Rocks taken from somewhere along the hike to the Au Sable Light House. Picture taken with Canon 300D, EF-S 18-55mm lens @ 54mm, f/12, 1/320 sec, ISO 100
[singlepic id=1492 w=720] The title of this one should be something like “stay off the damn water.” Picture taken from Mosquito Chapel Beach in Pictured Rocks which is about 8 miles from where we started the trip. There was some lightning and we actually did have to stay off the… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1490 w=480 float=left] A special picture from an abandoned Skillagalee Island (aka Ile aux Galets) – a land of bird carnage and feces. There’s the dilapidated lighthouse, one dead tree, 3000 birds and at one moment three silly kayakers on this island. There’s really no reason you’d ever need to… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1489 w=640] A shot from one of the little islands very near the start of our trip on Lake Superior Provincial Park. I don’t know the names of any of the islands out there, or anything about them other than I like the fog rolling over them but apparently… Continue reading
