Delta Lake State Park
The perfect end to a hectic day, sunset at Delta Lake State Park. I had the beach area all to myself, except for a pair of geese…

Fort Gratiot Lighthouse
USCG Station, Fort Gratiot, Port Huron, Michigan
Yesterday I shared my after dinner image of the USCG Cutter Hollyhock. Today I present the Fort Gratiot Lighthouse. The lighthouse is North of the Blue Water Bridge at the active U.S. Coast Guard station Fort Gratiot. Before we headed to dinner on Thurday we walked down to the St. Clair river at Lighthouse Park. I was able to capture these images of the lighthouse and surrounding station buildings as the sun was starting to drop below the clouds.
The walk from the parking lot to the beach did not give away the cold wind blowing that evening. I grabbed as many pictures as I could before we started back. It was then we realized are light jackets were not enough in the face of the wind now blowing directly into us. It made for a quicker pace back to the car.

Hollyhock
Port Huron, Michigan
The U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Hollyhock stationed in Port Huron, Michigan with the Blue Water Bridge into Canada in the background. After a long day at a supplier’s building on Thursday we drove up to Port Huron for dinner with a friend. After dinner I was able to get down to the St. Clair river and get this blue hour image of the Hollyhock docked for the night. Too bad it was probably my last trip to this area as the supplier is closing and our business with them will be done in a matter of weeks.

Delta Sunset Silhouette
Delta Lake State Park
Not one to generally let a good sunset go to waste, I was running out the door after noticing how the sky was starting to look. I quickly decided my best chance for a good show would be over at Delta Lake State Park. I was not proven wrong…
Although my Sunday morning excursion for the images of the ferry on Chautauqua Lake turned out better than expected, that lake was practically free of ice. Now Delta Lake is still very much covered in ice but I do not think it would support much weight. I’m not going to complain though as the ice along with the bare spots provided some very nice reflections for this sunset image. I know today is suppose to be even warmer but I’m hoping there will be another opportunity for me to grab a sunset.
