I wanted to capture all the blues of a summer day on Lake Superior - the water, the sky and the shadows on the cliff.

Calm and serene with the sheltered beach against the backdrop of rugged cliffs, the old woman gazes out across Lake Superior.

Some of the purples and greens from the cliff face are reflected in the still water. I have only the sky and clouds left now. :)

This is an 11 x 14 of the cliff formation on Lake Superior that resembles an old woman looking out into the lake. I love the deep blue shadows that are offset by the brighter greens (and splash of orange) where the sun hits the foliage.
