Along the icy shores of Lake Michigan today at Pier Cove, I captured the orange/yellow afterglow of the sunset. Three hikers are shown on the far left, providing a sense of scale to the beautiful scene. Ice, sand and free flowing lake waters mix to provide an amazing landscape, bringing pleasure to the eye…

    Great for the winter time anyway and then you can switch to a spring theme later if you want.

So many wonderful elements the colors, the ice. The people make the composition adding a sense of scale and place. Great shot, Jeffrey.

  Thanks Jane 🙂 I’m glad you noticed how the people give the image more of a sense of scale. That’s exactly what I intended and I like doing that in my photography when the subject is large, or in some cases very small 🙂

    An excellent technique- revisited it for this week’s photo challenge on scale. In places like the national parks it really helps.
