Split Rock Lighthouse in the Moonlight (ns0811-01-084)

Split Rock Lighthouse on Minnesota's North Shore of Lake Superior.

 

Every November 10, the light is lit in memory of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

 

This year, the lake was calm under a crystal clear -- and cold -- night. The nearly full moon bathed the shoreline in its silvery glow.

 

I used HDR to bring out the light on the shoreline while keeping the lighthouse light from blowing out.
