Whitefish Point
Uploaded: August 26, 2010 12:22:14
From the archives: The Whitefish Point lighthouse is located near Paradise, Michigan, where Whitefish Bay opens into Lake Superior. It was about 16 miles off shore from here that the Edmund Fitzgerald went down, and the bell from the Fitzgerald is on display at an excellent maritime museum on the lighthouse property.

Gorgeous lighthouse photo = Jack Ryan. Good balance, and the perfect pov to show the light and its setting. Love that reflected light from the one rooftop to the siding facing us. Hail to the king! #8862599Gina Cormier August 26, 2010 0

GREAT CAPTURE, JACK!!! Whitefish Pt is one of my favorite spots to tour in the UP. My husband's parents had a house not too far from there.My parents knew a lot of the sailors on the Edmund Fitzgerald. The remembrance is so haunting and poignant. I like Gordon Lightfoot's song that came from it.
Cheers, Nancy J Locke #8863142

Your usual excellent work!! Love the POV, light, colors and clarity!!You should plan to visit the Polar bears at the Columbus Zoo as early as possible. By about 10:15 the stroller brigade is there in full force. It is easily the most popular exhibit. #8863681
