Sunrise over Lake Minnetonka

from flickr user John Felix Mackey
A cold but orange sunrise makes its way over the horizon on St. Alban's Bay on Lake Minnetonka. Known during the summer months as a sort of playground with waves for the affluent and young who live near the largest lake in the Twin Cities with its seemingly endless number of bays and channels, the winter months leave a sense of serenity with a thin layer of snow covering the ice beneath.

Best of MinnPics - March 2013

from flickr user Boreal Bird
The truly magnificent colors come out to play at sunrise. This photo of plates of ice near the shore of Lake Superior shows the contract of seasons that march in Minnesota often is. While winter drug on into May throughout parts of the state, March showed us glimpses of Spring as well as stunning colors which often times go overlooked during the sometimes bleakness of winter.
