July 27 - Summer Splendor
North Shore
Palisade Head near Palisade Head on the North Shore of Lake Superior is one of the great hidden gems for photographing the shoreline. Light breezes, deep-blue water, forest-green hills, and the warm tones of ancient rock come together to create an unforgettable scene that captures Lake Superior in all its summer splendor.
These towering, lichen-covered cliffs rise nearly 300 feet above the crystal-clear waters below. In the distance, Shovel Point stretches into the lake, another rugged reminder of the North Shore’s raw beauty.
Standing here, it is easy to understand why Lake Superior truly is superior. The vastness, strength, and beauty of this place stir something deep within the soul.
“The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge.” — Psalm 18:2
All of creation declares the glory of God, but places like this seem to proclaim it with unmistakable power. May we never lose our sense of wonder at the beauty He has made.
