January Shore

January Shore by farlane.
This photo is from January 2006. If the sun were to come out (hypothetically of course) things would look a lot like this today as well.

I like the backlit heads of the dunegrass in this one. I am getting tired of the gray as well!

It's actually in Leland. The Homestead is on the other side of that point (Pyramid Point).

Thanks all for the comments!

It all comes back to me, too. I spent lots of winters up there as a kid -- probably stood on that very beach at some point. Surely one of the most beautiful and serene places in our wonderful country.

You should all come up and visit - we could use both the tourism $$ AND the new faces! :)

It was probably about 0 degrees, shqipo. I have this special hat that renders me pretty much impervious to cold though.

Also, this photo appears on The Leelanau Almanac for January 25-31, 2007.

Also also, this photo is the 2,222nd photo matching "leelanau" on Flickr. If that's not a textbook granfalloon, I don't know what is! ;)

Thanks - the light is so great by the lake at sunset. All those greens and oranges and blues and yellows.

Yeah, they are. It's funny how you can only get certain qualities of light and color at certain times of the year.

The location of this photo looks very close to where my grandmother used to live. Brings back memories.
