The photo below is the lower lake freighter Alpena making port somewhere on Lake Michigan last fall. Obviously, I know where I shot this photo, but does the Wacko population?



If the wackos don't get it from this angle, I'll post another a little later as a further hint, but I suspect that won't be needed at all!

Well, I'm not a Wacko -- yet, but in any case, since I was there when Gary took this, he already told me I'm disqualified from participating!!

Sorry there HarbourFan... Very good guess! The Michigan City light does have a catwalk, but it's different than this one, although the light itself at the end of that pier is quite similar in design.

Way to go HarbourFan... A WINNER! Not sure what you win, but...

The other photo I was going to post as a clue around 5PM if it was needed, and my confidence that it wouldn't be was bourne out, was the following from up on the dunes just north of the St Joseph North Pier that shows both the inner and outer lights.



I'm sure this view would have been a dead giveaway!

Guess I'll have to come up with a tougher quiz photo for the next round of the lighthouse photography quiz!
