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.

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.

Evening Light
Kiwanis Park at Geiger Point, Melbourne, FL
A friend of mine retired at the end of 2016. He and his wife are spending February down in Florida. They are near Melbourne and I had hoped to make a quick trip down to visit him. Work kinda got in the way and I do not believe I will make it down.
It would have been cool to spend some time running around Florida together doing nothing in particular. Of course, it would have given me more opportunities for sunrises and sunsets. I’m sure there will be other times…
Going through my images from December I ran across this view from Geiger Point near the 192 Causeway. I loved that evening as it was the first sunset after we arrived. The drive down had been long but I knew the best way to recharge was to get out with my camera. No jaw-dropping pics were captured but there was great light which is always good.
