Description

I captured this image at the mouth of Otter Creek where it enters Lake Michigan in Michigan. This is in Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore. I had come down to the beach on Lake Michigan hoping a great sunset would happen and nothing really happened as the sun was setting. Other people were there and some were photographing the sunset. Everyone else left as soon as the sun dropped over the horizon. I waited and boy I'm glad I did. The light coming up over the horizon lit up the clouds and the beautiful golds and oranges reflected on the water making a spectacular scene. It only lasted a few minutes but what a wonderful show. Too bad everyone else left.
