Taken a year ago, on my birthday, from our hotel in Traverse City. In color because, well, I wanted to post it in color.

Mom often complained that I kept taking the same photographs, which she considered wasted duplication. I'll certainly admit I've taken this photograph many times, but I'd insist that no two are the same. The light differs, the snow comes and goes, sometimes there are birds, and the clouds are remarkably variable. The vegetation changes. The water level changes. Sometimes the ice shelf extends far into the bay. And I change cameras, and lenses, and camera setups with just appalling regularity. The similar photographs are really not all that similar.

But, really--it's beautiful here in Traverse City, and that's reason enough to make photographs. I've taken several more versions of this photo already this weekend.

One of the things I like about Pointes North is the hotel's rails. The halls are exposed, and every room's got a balcony. My 366 Snaps photo from a year ago was an attempt to capture the hotel's chutes and ladders look.

This photograph is an outtake from my 2012 photo-a-day project, 366 Snaps.

Number of project photos taken: 12
Title of "roll:" Rails and Balconies
Other photos taken on 2/27/2012: I took 20 pictures with the Cybershot. Most were of the room and the bay; a few were of Mackinaw Brewing Company, where we dined.
