The texture of water is no more constant than the spectrum of human emotions. In a wild river, it can be rough and raucous. While in a northern lake, its surface can reflect the summer sky as if the still water were a mirror. And then there are those streams where water’s texture can evoke the whimsical on a warm afternoon.

Lovely photos. I’ve lived near the first two rivers, and your pictures do a great job of showcasing them!

Thank you, Becky. They surely each have their own character. I used to take boyhood vacations near the Au Sable, but never visited the Tacquahmenon until a few years ago.
