This is located in the extreme northwest tip of the UP. It was a long drive, but worth every mile. A delayed shutter speed gives the rushing water a 'blur effect.' Check it out! Sign in to see full entry.

This is another shot I got about this time last year. I'm facing northwest into the beauty of the forest, but behind them is about 15" of snow about to pile on. Twenty-four hours later, the road I took to get to this location was buried. Check it out! Sign in to see full entry.

I loved the colors I would see in the UP, and I would often pull over as I rode the ups and downs of the various roads to get a shot like this. Check it out! Sign in to see full entry.

This was taken "early" about a year ago in the UP. The sun was beginning to climb, so I am thinking it was about 10:30. I happened to look up and caught the sun peeking from behind the branches and snapped several shots. Check it out. Sign in to see full entry.

This odd set of falls is near Copper Harbor, way to the north of that jut out into Superior. I'm standing at the top, looking down and north. Check it out! Sign in to see full entry.

This pretty little lake was about three miles from our house in Newberry. I could stand by this place for a long time and never know that any time had passed. Check it out! Sign in to see full entry.

My friend Laura sent me a series of shots from near Marquette to show me the massive waves pounding the shores of Lake Superior. The local police were on the shores, attempting to keep the idiots from getting caught up in the backwash of these massive 25-35 foot waves. Check it out! Sign in to see full entry.

I really tried to avoid the clutter in the lower left corner, but it didn't seem to matter in the end. This is stunning! Check it out! Sign in to see full entry.
