February 26 – Crystal Shores

Gleaming in the rising sun, stacks of sheet ice decorate the shoreline of Lake Superior. Late February is prime time for ice photography along the North Shore, as strengthening sunlight and growing wave action break the shore ice apart.

Lake Superior’s ultra-clear water freezes into remarkably transparent ice, enhancing refraction and creating glass-like clarity with glowing edges and vivid blue-and-gold highlights.

A simple walk along the shore calms the soul and reminds us of our daily blessings.

“Having the glory of God, its radiance like a rare jewel, like jasper, clear as crystal.” — Revelation 21:11

God’s creation surrounds us in every season. As February fades, winter loosens its grip, and a new season draws near.
