Lakeview in Michigan

Went back this week to see how the colors were doing...a few more clouds in the sky this time.

Which lake is that, gm? I like the dead tree to the left, but the branches up above right kind of distract a little. It looks like the wind was blowing the cattails quite a bit, too.

The lake was just to the west of Gun Lake....I think it is called Hall Lake in the Yankee Springs area. Just found it riding around. I left the trees in there on purpose to give it some perspective but you're right, the more I look at it the more it distracts.

It was yesterday (10/14).

I think I know where that lake is, but I've never been to it. It's pretty tough to find lakes around here that aren't surrounded by houses or some kind of civilization (telephone poles, wires, general manmad crap, etc). I've been trying to find some lakes to shoot fall colors around and am having no luck. Either you're tresspassing on someone's land or you're ripe to get shot at by hunters. haha Maybe I need to take a trip up north where the lakes are more secluded.

Or farther south, the Chelsea area has a lot of wonderful lakes and the fall colors there are better then anywhere else in SE Michigan. Wish I had time to drive down there and get a couple shots.

Thanks for the heads up...maybe I'll make a drive down there next weekend and also stop at Ikea.
