| August 14, 2007 - Grand Marais' Fishermen's Picnic and National Lighthouse Day | |||||||||||
 |
Two celebrations took place last week, Grand Marais' Fishermen's Picnic and National Lighthouse Day which was celebrated nationwide. At Fishermen's Picnic we watched the evening fireworks. I made an error in judgment in where to sit. I wanted to get the reflections of the fireworks in the calm waters of the bay. We decided to sit on the beach in front of the campground. When the fireworks started I found they were so high that I couldn't get the both the fireworks and reflections in the frame at the same time. We were way too close. I was disappointed but then chose to just aim the camera high and get the fireworks overhead. We were close enough that the fireworks were almost directly overhead and made for some pretty awesome views. One of the photos captured two explosions that make the photo appear like it was taken from outer space of a distant galaxy that was being invaded by space creatures.
The second photo was taken on Tuesday night when the Split Rock Light was lit in celebration of National Lighthouse Day. This is a timed exposure so it makes the movement of the water appear as ground fog moving in. Several park visitors sat on the beach enjoying the peaceful evening watching the Split Rock Light illuminate the magic of Lake Superior.

| August 6, 2007 - Edna G | |||||||||||
 |
Last Sunday night Karla and I ordered a pizza and sat on the shore in front of the Edna G. to watch the moon come up. The orange glow from the moon and the harbor lights gave the Edna G. an orange glow that made for a great photo. While sitting there we noticed a suitcase on the ground. Now days you always worry about unattended packages. Soon an older gentleman came up and I asked him if it was his. It was and we started talking.
He said he was waiting for the Edgar Speer ore boat to come in. He was just hired to work on the boat. The captain told him if he could get to Two Harbors he could hop on the boat. He caught a plane for Duluth and took a taxi from Duluth to Two Harbors. It seemed like an expensive way to get to town but there is no other public transportation from Duluth to the ore docks at night. He talked about traveling many places in the world. His family was back in Europe. He was excited to get a chance to work on the boats and as the Edgar Speer pulled in under the full moon we wished him well on his new adventures.
