Lighthouses on the Frozen Shore of Lake Michigan

In January, I spent a few days on the shore of Lake Michigan capturing the lighthouses at Grand Haven, Saint Joseph, and South Haven. It's been an unseasonably warm winter from a warmer than usual El Niño this year. This resulted in ice pancakes and fractured ice as opposed to the usual completely frozen lake shore that is common this time of year.
I was fortunate enough to journey out on one of the only sunny days in January to capture some great scenes at South Haven and Saint Joseph. On another day, I encountered a freighter exiting the Grand River at Grand Haven into Lake Michigan.
