Tettagouche Sea Arch Collapses...

The original destination for two Saturday's ago was the Lake Superior Beach sea arch in Tettagouche park. I didnt get up early enough to make it so I cut my losses and got the images from the "5 AM...Where Were You?" thread at Gooseberry Falls.

I went there after the sunrise and got the snapshot below, figured Id come back the next Saturday and get up a bit earlier to get the shot I wanted.

That's a bummer. The sea is but sole judge and jury.

Yeah, it's gone. But I believe that 2 and 3 are beautiful pictures regardless, and now you have a very interesting isolated rock. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Landscapes are changing all the time, thus you must be willing to change as well!

If it's any consolation, I still think your photos turned out wonderfully.

Thanks guys - and you're right, Todd. Nothing we could do to stop it - nor would we want to if we could.

On the bright side, I suppose I may have the first image ever of the rocks in their new formation. Park officials are speculating it occured on Friday night and I was there at 5:30 AM on Saturday.

One of the great aspects of landscape photography is the changing landscape.

Turn your feelings around, and say this.

Yah, this is the best way to think about it I guess. On the brighter side, it did get "published" on Minnesota Public Radio's website in their article about the landmark.
