[Here] You see me. Here You love me. Here You ask the response of my own love, and of my confidence. Here You ask me to be nothing else than Your friend.

Like many others I’ve been mining the archives as opportunities to get out and shoot diminish. This is from our 2017 meet-up in British Columbia with a bunch of the kindest, most talented photographers you could ever hope to meet. Inspired by [https://www.flickr.com/photos/jennilou101] ‘s vibrant greens. F4.5, what was I thinking?

There was just a small slot across the Lake to the south. I was thinking that the clouds that were moving in would slide over and block off the gap before sunrise. That seems to be what often happens. On Tuesday, the clouds took their time and the sun was able to shine through the slot for the sunrise.
Lake levels are low enough (about 7 inches less than last year) to walk the shoreline in places where it previously was very difficult to do without getting wet.
We have had no extended period of cold weather at the south end of Lake Michigan this winter. The only places with ice seem to be up in the quiet water parts of Green Bay.
Thanks for looking!
