Afternoon on the shore of Lake Huron at the Pinery. Dreamlike, the horizon is tobacco stained with the emissions from Chemical Valley to the southwest. The eastern shore of Lake Huron has a sandy bottom that is churned up by the waves in the summer breeze, and the silt and algae stain the water green. Offshore, where the water deepens sharply, the lake is a shadowy blue.
