Lake Michigan.

Rumored to be the most-photographed lighthouse in the world. I'm skeptical about that claim, but I'm certain it's high up the list.

Took this last February, but it seems appropriate today. So here it is....

Betsie was relatively ice-free yesterday.

The Point Betsie lighthouse, north of Frankfort, Michigan. My favorite light, and the best set of photographs I ever took there. There's ICE beneath that snow, by the way. Shortly after shooting this photograph I took a little spill....

Last September 23 we woke up in Ludington, with all day to reach Traverse City. So we took a leisurely drive up the Lake Michigan coast, enjoying the dramatic day. We stopped for a while at Point Betsie, watched the waves pounding in, and photographed the lighthouse against the clouds . It was glorious. ========== I got my 366 Snaps pix out of the way early, but a file-transfer mishap after we arrived in TC lost the Ludington shots and forced me to try some after-dark shots of the well-lit exterior of our hotel. A couple came out OK; one of those became my pic-of-the-day. Instead of those, here's a picture of Joan at Point Betsie. ========== This photograph is a non-outtake from my 2012 photo-a-day project, 366 Snaps .
