Reflection

Reflection of spruce and paper birch at the edge of a wetland off Spider Lake Road north of Grand Rapids, Minnesota.

 

Taken in the late afternoon on a calm day in northern Minnesota. This area is just north of Skeeter Lake, and it was well named - I probably got 50 mosquito bites trying to set up and shoot this single b&w image and a color one to go with it. It's a hard choice - a stiff breeze, which blows the mosquitoes away but also disrupts the reflections, or dead calm, with its beautiful reflections and hordes of mosquitoes to go with it.
