Dappled Sunlight Golden
I originally stopped off the side of the road to grab a few photos of sandhill cranes. But the cranes were not cooperative, so I had to work with the sunrise on the side of the road.

Sunset on the Georgian Bay
Lake Huron – Tobermory, Ontario
That sliver of land way out there on the horizon? That’s Manitoulin Island.
The Lodge
The lodge at Tobermory, Ontario, offered a perfect view of Lake Huron and the Georgian Bay off the back patio. The way the light came into the main sitting room was perfect.
Red Top Motor Inn
You want a great place to stay along Highway 17 in Ontario, along the Georgian Bay in Lake Huron? Give the Red Top Motor Inn a try.
It’s classic motor lodge, with vintage decorations, Centennial design, and a great dining area.
That’s what’s great about these roadside motels in Ontario: a ton of them have little restaurants attached, with great food.
Waking Light
Horton, Michigan
It’s getting to be that time of year where the sunrise is perfectly timed to my morning commute. From now through early September it will be great for photo making, like with this little shed on my neighborhood street.
This was one of those photos that I screeched to a halt in my car, pulled over, and crept through the trees to get the shot.
Ramshackle
Sure, there’s a bit of bravery needed to pull the car over and climb into an abandoned and nearly-collapsed shack on the edge of an overgrown tree farm.
And then you see the creep-tastic shrine someone made out of a skull and carcass bones.
But there’s also adventure, and the gnawing desire to see what’s inside the thing.
So it was that I climbed into this ramshackle little building, probably no more than 15 ft. by 30 ft., after passing if for many years along M-60 just east of Spring Arbor, Mich.
