This beautiful park graces the shores of Lake Superior in Duluth. A spectacular extension of Leif Erikson Park, Duluth's Rose Garden offers a beautiful arrangement of more than 3,000 rose bushes and other floral delights. There's also a fountain, a marble gazebo, an herb garden and plenty of benches overlooking the lake.
Lake Superior lets off steam as an ice-covered Laker makes its way into the Duluth Shipping Canal on a freezing January morning. Fingers freeze and camera batteries die quickly in this weather, so quick snapshots are the rule of the day. There are few days of Duluth's year where conditions are right for thick sea smoke, but those challenging days make for some beautiful images. All three forms of water are visible here, steam, liquid, and ice. By the breath of God ice is given, and the broad waters are frozen fast. Job 37:10 Thank you, oh God, for cold January days where we can view your beautiful creation and breath in the pure arctic air.
