Ya, I know what your saying, I went thru about 100 different sunrises & sunsets, and that was the ones in the BWCA. I have another 100 or so from the SHT, and my trip to the Isle Royale is another 40 or so.

Ya, so picking the best is going to be a hard call

Kawishiwi Lake, Friday September 9, 2011. It was two days before the Pagami Creek fire came through Kawasachong and Square Lakes--the smoke plume is in the distance. Spartan2 is photographing the sunset.

Hmm, my photo for the August Contest is titled "Sunset over North Temperance Lake" but checking up on it, it seems that the title did not get posted with the photo. I have no idea why. Apologies

Apologies! there seems to be a problem with titling my august submission for member "Action Eagle" The title is "Two Canoe Sunset" and was taken at North Temperance Lake. This was an all-girls portaging trip and I was deeply moved by the smokey sunset caused by the fires in Western Minnesota. I don't know why the title and description didn't take the first time.
