Only in quiet waters do thing mirror themselves undistorted. Only in a quiet mind is adequate perception of the world.

Sharing the beauty of Northern Michigan.
Welcome!
I love "Up North" and have appointed myself the unofficial travel ambassador for Northern Michigan. There are so many great things to do - visit the State Parks, ski, snowmobile, view elk, see the moose of Isle Royale, hike, kayak, visit a winery, bird watch and so much more. Please join me in my travels.

I really like that quote about a quiet mind. Nice photo to go with the words!
What a peaceful picture! The quote is so true. I cherish it.
A quiet mind is a good thing.

Wonderful photo>>but snow still!!
Hard to believe since I've been basking in all this sunshine! sending some your way!!
Beautiful picture! One of my favorite things is being out on the water when it is so still; the whole world just seems to slow down.
Oh, I want to be sitting there in a comfy chair w/ a hot cup of coffee!!!
You title and thumbnail in my reader really caught my attention, its' just lovely full size!!
Loved the stillness of this one too...good thing you didn't sneeze or anything and disturb the still river!
If I could sit in your pictures for a while I would definitely acquire a quiet mind..such serenity.. very nice!
Gorgeous! I love the mirror effect on the water. I have one that is similar that I took on Lake Powell in northern Arizona. I love when things reflect on the water.
