Contrails
Coming In Hot
The Algoma, Wisconsin lighthouse and pier stands in silhouette against a dramatic sunrise sky, with contrails piercing through the clouds. The calm, cool Lake Michigan waters seem unaffected by the rising drama.
This is a companion image to “Path to Glory” that I posted May 21st. If you compare them it’s obvious, they were both taken on the same morning from a slightly different angle. This was a hidden gem I found on my hard drive from 2014.

Path to Glory
The upper half of the Algoma, Wisconsin lighthouse was framed by contrail streaks just before sunrise. Algoma is located on the western shore of Lake Michigan.
It was a crazy sky that morning. There were low, dark clouds on the horizon and high, light wispy clouds above. Adding to the crazy were a number of contrails being highlighted by the hidden sun. There were more contrails than what you see here. Watch for another, wider shot from this same morning that I plan on posting in the near future.

When The Morning Comes
As it rises, the sun illuminates and colorfully accentuates the clouds and contrails behind the Algoma, Wisconsin lighthouse and pier. Algoma is located on the western shore of Lake Michigan.
This was taken a couple of years ago. This is actually a panorama image – where I joined three separate image together to get a wider, more detailed view.
These are the mornings that make getting up before sunrise and driving to your destination worth the effort.

One Minute Sunset – 07-30-17
This is a time-lapse video of a July sunset at our home in rural Kewaunee County, WI. This compresses about an hour of time into a minute.
Be sure to watch long enough to see the contrails (A trail of condensed water from aircraft at high altitude, seen as a white streak against the sky.) There are three of them. It is easy to miss the first one. It shows up at about 27-seconds in as a light line coming in from the right side of the tree. The other two you won’t miss at 34 and 42 seconds. They come from the top of the frame and are prominent in the scene.
For the best viewing experience, you’ll want to watch this video at full-screen and high definition. To do so, click the controls in the bottom right corner of the video frame.
