Little Sable Point Lighthouse
Night Lights
I love the simplicity of this mid-twilight view of Little Sable Point Lighthouse and the planets Venus (brightest) and Jupiter close together. The sky is still bright enough that bright stars are just becoming visible.

Drama Queen
Little Point Sable Lighthouse stands tall against a dramatic night sky. My wife and I were driving north from Chicago when we saw this sunset developing as we approached Oceana County. I quickly headed west to get to the lighthouse in time to be greeted by a sky even more colorful than I had anticipated.
Little Sable Reflections
It was the calm after the storm. Following a spring "southwester" that heaved waves onto the Lake Michigan shoreline, a giant puddle remained trapped on shore in front of Little Point Sable Lighthouse. I delighted in discovering this short-lived, but alluring, natural phenomenon.
Little Point Painting
The patterns of the clouds this November morning enable me to make a painterly photographic image of Little Sable Point Lighthouse. I could never paint a backdrop as perfect as this real sky. This is a prime example of a concept we teach: "Clouds are your friends."
