Captured on January 20, 2026, Frozen Vigil preserves a moment that lasted only minutes. After days of wind, spray, and deep winter cold, the St. Joseph lighthouse stood encased in thick ice, its railings and supports transformed into frozen sculptures. As the storm clouds briefly parted above the pier, the northern lights quietly emerged. Soft bands of violet and rose drifted across the sky behind the lighthouse, illuminating the frozen structure in an otherworldly glow. For a short time, the restless waters of Lake Michigan fell silent beneath the aurora, and the lighthouse continued its steady watch through the cold.
Printed on professional silver halide photographic paper (C-type) for exceptional tonal depth and archival longevity.
• Watermark is not included in the final print
