Belmont Harbor Lake Walls

Belmont Harbor Lake Walls are almost entirely exposed after the heavy late winter snow and ice as Lincoln Schatz photographs what ice remainsPhotographing the last remnants of ice on the Belmont Harbor lake walls. I’ve been really taken this past winter with studying how the ice forms and thaws on the shores of Lake Michigan over the course of the season. The transformations that occur over days, weeks and months reveal a wealth of different behaviors and patterns as the temperatures and weather change repeatedly.
