View From Below

We only had ten minutes to view the Split Rock Lighthouse in Two Harbors off of Lake Superior before the park closed. So we went to the scenic spot for photos, just as the sun was setting. We were treated to an amazing sky, colors, lighting, and view.

We came back to the Duluth Lift Bridge the next night. A lot less wind, about 35 F degrees, and calmer waters.

The often photographed, Duluth Lift Bridge. The most amazing part about this photo is the lack of people in the shot.

Cottage View Drive-in Seed Art

One of my past favorite places to photograph was the, closed in 2012, Cottage View Drive-in. One of my photos of the sign is on the wall of my local Applebee's. This year while looking at the seed art at the Minnesota State Fair, there was a dedication to the sign. Kudos to the artist.
