October Morning on Lake Michigan

Snow squalls
seagulls - it is amazing watching them fly in weather like this -- buffeted by wind and water.
I've been here! In calm weather, of course. ;o)
This is just gorgeous!!!
good backround
Allen and I spent the nite here once.
October Morning on Lake Michigan by Diann*.
This photograph of the Ludington lighhouse was taken about 10 am on a late October morning. I am facing westward; so the sun, of course, is behind me reflecting on the clouds. It is an extremely windy day, evidenced by the whitecaps in the harbor and the waves cresting over the breakwall.

Added to the Cream of the Crop pool as my "most favorited" photograph.
