The Scene and the Snapshot: Episode Three

After a little hiatus due in part to sixteen million other things happening at the same time, I’m pleased to release the next episode in my odd little series called, “The Scene and the Snapshot.” Here in the third episode, we take a look at one of our favorite Lake Huron public beaches on the M134 in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. There are several public beaches in the stretch of M134 north of Hessel. This happens to be one of our favorites, due in part to the neat little island just a short distance off-shore. Depending on the lake levels, it is often possible to walk on the sandbar to the island. When we visited in July of this year, though, the lake was a little higher than it has been on previous trips, and Jenny was up to her neck before she got to the island. There’s always next year!

A special bonus on this particular outing was the presence of my award-winning videographer and photographer Dad, who contributed some slides and video for this and a future Michigan-based Scene and Snapshot episode. Thanks for being awesome, Dad.

There is a special section of the Dryrose Creative website to collect this content, and describe the theory behind the series a little bit more. Check it out at The Scene and the Snapshot. Comments are appreciated via email, facebook, twitter, here, vimeo… pretty much wherever you’d like. The link to the images is available at the link above. Here’s the video, though, to help you avoid some extra clicking:

Another edition of The Scene and the Snapshot, from the shores of Lake Huron on Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. This particular spot is at a small public beach on M134. There are several beaches along the stretch of road north of Hessel, but this is one of our favorites.
