Comment by Drake: Thanks all for the kind comments. I really like taking shots along Lake Michigan - especially the dramatic ones. The night before this shot, there was a storm with high winds and blowing snow and waves splashing against the structure. The next day (when I took the shot), the result was these great ice formations with the sun making the ice really stand out against the dark sky. The dark clouds rolled in shortly after I took the shot... sometimes you get a break with the timing... Thanks Again!
