Changing Skies !

Late afternoon the solid cloud cover began to give way producing a rainbow. If ever I see a peek of sun after rain that's what I look for. And there it was over Good Harbor Beach for a few minutes until the sun's light became obscured by a passing cloud. The light in these conditions seem to give subjects that rich crisp look.

Morning Has Broken !

I know I feature Good Harbor Beach many times, but I finally had the urge to get my butt out of bed early and capture the morning light. Actually I had things to do early and when I was done I drove over to check it out.

No need for captions, I'll let the light do the talking!
