How many years does it take for water to carve rock? Patient, persistent. The solid obstacle gives way. Disappears.

This is the Presque Isle River in the upper peninsula of Michigan, just before it empties into Lake Superior, and joins more water, with more power. A photo that I took years ago at this very spot was one of my mother's favorites.

Every one with a camera of some sort, not just photographers, pause on the small (bouncing) suspension bridge to capture this scene of the solid rock and water-carved potholes.

Details: Sony a7rii with 90mm lens, iso 200, f/13, 2 second exposure, polarizer and neutral density filter.

Keywords: Michigan, Presque Isle River, patience, persistence, water
