Description Look to this day,
For it is life,
The very life of life.
In its brief course lie all
The realities and verities of existence,
The bliss of growth,
The splendor of action,
The glory of power;

For yesterday is but a dream
And tomorrow is only a vision,
But today, well lived,
Makes every yesterday a dream of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.

Look well, therefore, to this day.
Such is the salutation of the dawn."

Western bank of Lake Michigan, Harrington Beach.

This needs to be seen. Like seriously? I've never seen anything like this. Wonderful composition, everything balances; looks gorgeous. Can't believe it hasn't gotten a DD yet.

Splendid - and rather chilly-looking

Thank you! Very cold, but so exciting in photographic potential that I never felt it til I was on my way back to the car.

I really appreciate the touch that you have put into this one - not only the photo, but your comment about living well today, in the very present time, which would make all the difference to yesterday and tomorrow.

I love the combination of the clouds, ice, and the stillness of the water in your great photo! !
