Sailors Take Warning

Not sure of the accuracy of the old saying: red sky in the morning, sailors take warning, not even sure if this qualifies as red, but it is pretty. From this morning, 9/27/10.

Cloudy Trio

Spectacular morning clouds.
A bit more light.
Brilliant afternoon color. All on one single amazing day. From Friday, 9/24.

Subtle Rays

Sun peeking through clouds and creating beautiful colors on Thursday, Sept 23.

Vertical Path

Smoky Horizon

Another Day...

...another impossibly beautiful interplay of sky, sun, and water. With bonus dragonflies.

Happy Birthday, Lakemichiblog!

This blog is two today. Brace yourselves for temper tantrums, picky eating, and potty training!

Smudge

Uncommon cloud formation this morning.

Lake and Leisure

I rode my bike to the office on Sunday, and there were hundreds of boats enjoying one of the last warm weekends on the lake. Here are a few.

Welcome Back!

Catching up on the backlog with multiple posts today.
I love the way the sun sparkles on the surface in these.
The trees make a great frame.

Our Own Little Ravinia

With Lake in the background.
Crowds (but small ones).
Perfect setting.

My Ships Have Come In

Tall ships visiting our humble harbor.
Looking out to sea (Lake).
Or, almost. Channel was too shallow for this ship to come in.

Seagull Series

All taken on a lovely late summer day.

Ghost Boat

This looks like an apparition. The setting sun made it luminous.

Retreat

These were taken from a nature area near my home. That color? What would you call it?

Love this tree/hand.

Three layers of abandoned piers.
