Saganaga Sunrise
This was taken from the dock at Superior North Outfitters on Saganaga Lake in May, 2004. Needless to say, this was taken before the Ham Lake Fire.
The combination of light, fog and still water was breathtaking.

Not from BWCA, but was with boy scout canoe trip in French River Provincial park 7-14-22 in Ontario. Canoed out to far NW corner of the Georgian bay. After a long day into the wind, camped at the finger board islands and took this shot(s) 7 19. A reward for the long day. Within 15 minutes every color in the blue/red/purple spectrum. All 9 of us mesmerized. Hard to do with 14 year olds.

Wow. Awesome photos. It took me a while to decide which sunset shot to submit, but I decided to share this 70's-esque pic that I snapped last June on Ester Lake.
As much as I like the way it turned out, it reminded me of disco-era romantic art, so for Christmas last year, I super-imposed some cheesy lyrics from our wedding song over the image and mounted it with gloss to a slice of tree stump.
The plan was to turn it into a clock, but I thought that might take it a step too far.

A scroll down the list reveals many fine photos. Some ones jumping out and demanding a closer look are by Uncle Moose (Isabella River), Beemer (Agnes), Moose Plums (Jean Lake), and Darkstar75.

Wow, what a way to come back from my recent trip to the BW. I'm honored to have been picked, there are certainly some outstanding photos in this thread.
Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate very well last week for photo's but we had a great time none the less. We did survive thursday nights down pour without a single wet tent...
Thanks Again!!
