View across the frozen Lake Superior at Squaw Island yesterday morning at sunrise. The ice made sounds like smashing plate glass windows as I walked across it. My friends Jay, Paul and myself ventured out into the bitter morning air before sunrise. (about -55C at the Lake with the windchill) Shortly after we all ran to the car and headed to Calico Cafe for hot chocalate.
WOW! What a sight to see. I can only image what it must have been like to behold this in person! Breathtaking capture!
