Michigan experienced an unusually brutal winter this past season. However, the effects of the harsh weather resulted in curious photo opportunities. On a drive back from Chicago, I stopped at the St. Joseph, Michigan pier on Lake Michigan and photographed these layers of snow and sand mixing on the beach. The snow was a superficial layer on top of the sand. As the wind etched away at the snow, exposing the sand beneath, it made the interesting undulations in the layers.
