Travel Tuesday is continuing my look back at some of the photos from the 52 week photo project I did in 2018.
This week I’m traveling to a section of the Colpoy’s Bay shoreline at sunrise to photograph waves forming icicles.
A week earlier Colpoy’s Bay was frozen but after some thawing the wind had pushed the ice out of the bay. A week after this photo was taken the wind had pushed the ice back into the bay and it was frozen again.
The tripod was frozen to the shoreline when I packed it away.
This is my contribution to the Cosmic Photo Challenge: A Splash of Colour prompt.
I initially went with a splash of colour before going with splashes in colour.
This is my contribution to the Cosmic Photo Challenge: The Rough with the Smooth prompt.
I had no ideas for this prompt until I was thinking about going down to the local bay for the sunrise. Which is when the idea of rough and smooth water occurred to me and at that point two photos were obvious picks for the challenge.

This is my contribution to the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge: Morning.
I am a morning person and often have the alarm set to allow me to get to a location half an hour before sunrise. So here’s a small selection of photos taken around sunrise but not necessarily what I would call a photo of a sunrise.
Waves and rocks on the Lake Huron shoreline soon after sunrise.

Sunday morning saw me down at the Colpoy’s Bay shoreline for the sunrise. Three days into spring and it was so cold that I got a second pair of gloves out of the car to go over the thin gloves I was using to operate the camera.

That’s ice forming on the rocks along the shoreline.
