I took this shot of Hollow Rock on Grand Portage and Lake Superior a decade ago.

Despite this spot being only about 45 minutes of my house, I seldom get there. Every year, I think that I should go photograph it in December when the sun comes through the hole, but then I end up doing other locations for the good sunrises.

The water was low a decade ago! You can't get this close now that water levels are near normal.

@bryanhansel What a wonderful spot - officially added to my “one of these days road trip” list
@bryanhansel
…..though, not in December 😳
@Kosch if you want to get the sunrise behind it, late fall through early spring is the only time.
@bryanhansel gotta love Lake Superior. Brrr but oh so beautiful. Here a few pics of #lakesuperior from High Rock Bay (tip top of the Upper Peninsula in Michigan)
@bryanhansel that is an amazing shot
@bryanhansel This is a stunning shot! The lighting is incredible.
@bryanhansel great shot shame u not there more often looks such fantastic spot
@bryanhansel that is a beautiful photo. Would love to see a current photo
@bryanhansel gorgeous! It’s nice to look back.
@bryanhansel That beam of light is incredible! Gorgeous photo...
@bryanhansel well done! Film or digital?
@hawaiianeye797 I shoot all digital now. I don't miss Tri-X or Velvia 50. 🙂
@bryanhansel Amazing shot! I grew up in northern Minnesota, but my family never got to Lake Superior during the winter.
@bryanhansel Weird. The waters low on Huron.
@bryanhansel Those rays of light coming through are insane!
@Joeyfingis that was fun. The sun was melting ice and causing steam to go through the sunlight.
