On the western side of the UP, there are lots of caves. Small are very small, and a few are pretty good-sized. This particular cave was bigger than three average-sized houses. I had already ruined the pair of shoes I was wearing, so I waded in and took this shot. Sign in to see full entry.

Fog In Black & White
I took this shot in frustration. I was attempting to take a shot in color, but I couldn't get the contrast I wanted and could readily see without the camera. I decided to try B&W, and this was the result. Sign in to see full entry.
