Winter is the best time to dig out photos from the library to give them maybe some well deserved attention. During a paddle trip on Bear Head Lake in northern Minnesota in the fall of 2023 this eroded root system of a spruce along the shore intrigued me. Any time I look at this photo I see different things and a new story. Nature is always fascinating.
THE TREE AT GOOSEBERRY RIVER
Gooseberry Falls State Park, Minnesota ----
While hiking up the trail from the waterfalls along Gooseberry River this tree and its roots, nestled into the rocks, caught my attention. On the way back the light was in my favor and I stuck the legs of the tripod in the sand and made the click. How about the waterfalls? Sure, some photos were made as well. Everybody does that. Sometimes looking away from the main attraction of a known location leads to a photograph that is special. At least it was for me at this time.
