A beautiful sunset over the serene Lake Michigan

I captured this Lake Michigan sunset just a few weeks ago on my way home from work.

The lake can be very peaceful and restorative, particularly on a summer evening.

There are a number of “commercialized” beaches in St. Joseph, this one is a bit more off the beaten path, and as a result, entirely empty a lot of the time, particularly on a weekday.

Enjoy! As always, I’d love to see what you think in the comments section!

During the winter, I actually took this photo on the same beach, probably less than 50 feet away.

And remember! If you are an HDR photographer, be sure to take a look at the HDR Spotting Invite Code Challenge: June Edition here. Less than a week left before the winner is announced!

Here there be Dragons

Is it really possible to create or is the pinacle humans can achieve creativity?

Dragon’s might seem like a novel idea, but after seeing one of these things washed ashore, the concept doesn’t seem that clever.
 
Add some bat wings, and you’ve basically got a dragon.
 

I saw this washed ashore on Lake Michigan. It’ll make me think twice next time I go for a dip, but I don’t think it’ll stop me from enjoying the water.
 
I don’t know what species this is, but it looks nasty. If you happened to know the name of this kind of fish let me know in the comments section!

 

Update: The people have spoken! It turns out this isn’t actually a dragon, but instead a Longnose Gar.
