Here is some information on this area that I took off of a sign that was close by.

The edge of this 19th century landfill, once an industrial dump site, forms the beach where glass-like slag, or cinder, mixed with iron, can still be found.

The Jackson Iron Co. used this furnace waste product as a road base and fill material.

Please do not disturb this early industrial evidence.

I appreciate your comments, thank you in advance.

I love the sweeping curve of the shoreline and the water kissing the shore Tigz.
Marvelous composition.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

A very good angle for this shot and you have made good use of it here Sandi. The row of trees look impressive!

The curved shoreline has given an extra dimension to this already very fine photograph, Sandi. Simply a top notch composition, my friend!

This is a part of my state I haven't explored, so thank you for sharing.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967

The light and beautiful curved shoreline, and the trees changing color in the background. Very well photographed, I like the Picture.
