About this photo

Light beams from the inner lighthouse on St Joseph North Pier in St Joseph, Michigan, as snow and ice coat the landscape, creating a picturesque scene.The pier extends out onto Lake Michigan, the only one of North America's Great Lakes that lies wholly in the US. The lighthouses illuminate the mouth of the St Joseph River, which runs through the city and further into the state. Michigan is known for its cold winter temperatures, often dropping to – 6ºC (21ºF).
