Splashes of Waves and Color!

A poupourri of splashes of autumn color
and water today for you
as
I go through
the many images
I haven't yet had the pleasure of sharing with you yet!"




This is at a place called "Jasper Knob" near Ishpeming Michigan, where we lived for 14 years.
It is about 25 miles from where we live now:







Look close! There are five large birds in their early autumn flight back south: (what do you think they are?):








Lichen on rocks!:















River in color!:










Splashes on Lake Superior rocks!:




























This was taken near Eagle Harbor,  Michigan
in early, early fall
before the leaves changed.  One windy day!:



 
I hope you make a splash today
and that you are colorful....
brighten those around you!!!

We do have a beautiful country, don't we? It looks so different from Mumbai, India...although I'm sure there are beautiful areas of India far from metropolis which went crazy for Oprah Winfrey's arrival recently.

I've been here two months now and will travel about to some other areas, from beach areas to ancient cities. I still have two months left.

Beautiful sights. I don't know the water fowl identity. I really like the lichen shot. The waves in Michigan could be Superior or Lake Michigan, right??? I guess I need to look at a map. Have a great day. Stay out of the water though today as it is just too cold.

Even though the pictures of fall should warm me, the waves give me a chill ~ could be the cold snap we're having! Great shots as usual.

Seeing as I'm surrounded by snow today, it's a pleasure to be reminded that nature does have other colors!
