Backblogging: Moonrise



Tiny moon, big sky. From late July 2011.

WAYBackblogging: Lake Geneva Sunset

Lake Geneva is no Lake Michigan, but it's beautiful and not very far away, either. This was taken in August 2009, but I just found it in my photo cache. The colors are stunning.

Backblogging: Color Wheel

A beautiful wheel of color in a lakefront park. That blue stripe on the Horizon is the Lake. From mid-July.

Backblogging: Guesting Gulls

This great photo of a group of gulls resting on rocks was taken in early July by guest photographer PM. Thanks, P!

Backblogging: Dusk Collection



These were all taken from my new camera phone, and downloaded in a batch without dates. I do know they are all from July 2011. That's the best I can do. Pretty, huh?

Backblogging: 500th post! 5 gorgeous views!

Prairie meets lake.
Clear water, smooth round stones.
A sandy beach with driftwood--or is that a lioness napping between tufts of grass on an African plain?
Humans meet Lake.
Sunset over Southport point. All from June 2011.

When I started this blog nearly 3 years ago, I could never have predicted what was to come: nearly 30,000 pageviews, a google hit with a post about icebergs, an art exhibit of some of these very photos, visitors from all over the world. But the thing that keeps me blogging is the reason I started in the first place: a reason to notice and share the beauty of this great natural wonder that is part of my very lucky everyday existence. Thank you for visiting.

Backblogging: Anger in the Sky

Clouds roll in over Lake Michigan on June 22.
