Bush Bay limestone boulders exposed, Northern Lake Huron, Great Lakes, Michigan Upper Peninsula
I spent some time up in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula this weekend, which is always a great escape. As soon as you cross the Mackinac Bridge, it seems like the hectic load of everyday life, urban development and sprawl comes to a halt. At least you can try in the isolation of the North Woods here.
This image was made in early morning twilight, just outside a large limestone quarry near Cedarville, Michigan. This lower part of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula has a large tract of limestone bedrock as part of the Niagara Escarpment. I thought these dimpled boulders made for interesting foreground subjects that communicated about the surrounding geology and landscape. Lake levels appear to be low this spring as a large part of this shoreline looked as if it is normally underwater. Locals reported they haven’t seen much rain in 3 weeks.
Wildflowers seemed to be doing well this year, which I will post some images of in the coming days. On the minus side, the tick population seems to have exploded up there. I was a bit more wary on this trip of taking those low angle, kneeling shots.
