Scale and vantage really matter, Dan. Standing on the beach or looking at it from a boat, you'd probably never imagine that it looks like this. And especially in the image on this page, it looks almost like a cloudscape. Or whipped cream.

You are so right, Don, but from this angle can you imagine what you would see from a boat or afoot? A closer view from a different perspective seemed to be a great mission for a beautiful fall day.<br /><br />

The old shore is 100 yards from the current shoreline. It is evidenced by a substantial change in elevation (by 2’) and in vegetation.

Upon closer examination, fine ripples are nicely packed in the water around the sandy spits.

Higher on the sandy shore loom hulking cypress trees. The view looking through a dead cypress treeman is a bit gloomy.

Not all the views of the exposed lake bottom are bleak. Some bright spots poke through the desolation. Thank you for the suggestion of a different perspective, Don. It was a splendid one.

Splendid photos of it, Dan. I must say, though, that the view from aloft is still my favorite.

If we southern Floridians assume that Lake Louisa is a fresh water non-tidal lake, it surprises me that this beach <br />effect can exist in the absence of tides and waves. Amazing.

Amazing, but not so surprising, Frank. After all, the sand all came from beaches that formed when sea level was much higher. And, if you ever get a chance to land on the huge lake when the wind is really blowing, don't. The waves are as good as you get most days on the coast.

This closely resembles what us poor northerners see from November to June---well, maybe February - when Lake Michigan beats up on the shoreline.
