Miner's Castle

You are standing high above the ice cold waters of Lake Superior

looking down upon the eroded cliffs of Pictured Rocks. The promontory

in the distance is known as Miner's Castle. Comments invited and

suggestions entertained.

Beautiful!

Wow, extraordinary colors. I would've never guessed Lake Michigan! Gorgeous angle and capture. Excellent detail too!

Margaret, it's not Lake Michigan...it's Lake Superior. I've edited the photo info to avoid future confusion. Thanks and regards.

Beautiful shot!

Wonderful image with great detail and color saturation. The view through the water really catches my attention. Excellent work!

I've been here many times and seen similar photos at this angle many times (taken many myself), but I've never seen the depth of colors that you have captured. Congrats.

Beautiful, have you taken shots of the same point at differnt times of the day and season?

Oops! Thanks for setting that straight ;-)

Gorgeous color, great detail. I'd love to see the transparency on a light box!

walter..another great image..tt

Technically superb, artistically awesome.

here it goes it: WOW!!!!

Love the photo, makes me want to grab my scuba gear and catch a plane. Thanks! Great photo!

Don, a few miles west of here, in Munising Bay, is the Alger Underwater Preserve. It's a favorite spot for scuba exploration of many old shipwrecks that occurred over the years. Lake Superior is very unforgiving.

Great colors and composition. very well done :)

Excellent angle, light, colours...truly amazing.

Another winner! You take such interesting images with rich color and texture. Good work again!

Well done. Great composition with superb colors and details.

This is one of the few shots I have seen on this site that benefit from a larger sized posting. The detail is awesome and the color so suprising when you think of the great lakes. Lots of drama and detail. This one is worthy of the highest marks.

 

 

to eveyone who stopped by for a visit. Michigan's Upper Pennisula is a favorite place for me; it has always been an adventure to travel through it. Unfortunately, the land that Hemingway loved and wrote about is rapidly losing it's unique wildness, an individuality that so many lovers of the outdoors admired.

great color throughout the image in the trees, hills, and fading out into deep blue really pleasing

I had no idea that there was any place this beautiful in Michigan.

Beautiful! I wish I could be there :)
