Weekly Photo Challenge: Beyond
This is my entry into the Weekly Photo Challenge: Beyond.
This photo was taken on Mackinac Island, in Michigan, USA. Mackinac Island has always been, and probably always will be, one of my favorite places on earth. The whole atmosphere there is like nowhere else that I’ve been.
The island itself is not very large (just under 4 square miles), but it is covered in beautiful old-style house, forests, parks, and so on. There are no cars allowed on the island. You must, as a visitor, or resident, get around on foot, by bicycles, horse, or horse-drawn cartage. Very little has changed in way of architecture. Most of the buildings are original to the colonel era, including the forts that still reside there.
If you ever decide to go for a visit (I have been there at least 15-20 times) my advice is to go during the Lilac festival. Absolutely beautiful, and the aroma in the air is to die for. The entire island is covered with these wonderful flowering bushes.

Those stairs are a temptation. I want to saunter down them and be enfolded by the trees that await in the background. I can so see why you would love such a space.
It is a beautiful spot. Climbing down them is the easy part, starting at the bottom and going up… 😛
It’s worth every step and it’s a good thing they have little benches along the way, lol.
Works as “beyond” for me…I’m walking down those steps…:-)
Thanks for the pingback!
Thank you very much. I had hoped it would convey that. 🙂
You are very welcome for the pingback. My little part to spread some great photos. (even if I don’t have a lot of followers at the moment 😉 )
Very nice stairs! And thanks for the pingback 🙂
Thank you and you are most welcome. 🙂
Really nice photo, and thanks for the pingback. How did you get that huge list of links though?
Thank you, and you are welcome.
As to the links, if you go to the WPC page and scroll down, there will be a list of links. When I did this list it was three pages worth of the challenge page, almost 300 entries. It’s probably more now. 😀
Beautiful photograph. Thanks for the pingback.
Thank you, and you are very welcome. 🙂
What a beautiful picture…I want to walk down those steps and on into the forest right out of the photo! (Also, thank you for the pingback – without it, I might never have seen your site!)
Thank you very much. 🙂 Walking down them is the easy part, walking up is a whole other matter.
You are most welcome for the pingback, and I’m glad you found my site, even if it was through a backlink. 😉
Great photo. This is definitely one of my favorite photographs for the theme “beyond”. You have made me want to visit this place to see what is beyond the steps.
Wow, thank you very much. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I have to say it is a beautiful place to visit.
What a lovely, peaceful place, love the stairs leading into it. A family member has been there and highly recommends it.
The link to the lilac festival came up with an error page. When is the Lilac Festival?
That’s my bad, lol. Hit a wrong key. Should be fixed now though. If not here is the link again.
http://www.mackinacislandlilacfestival.org/
The festival is from June 7th to the 16th for the 2013 season. 🙂
Thank you. 🙂 It is a wonderful spot. I love it.
Hope you were starting at the top of those stairs – thanks for the ping back!
Well I had already gone up them (what a trip) and was about to go back down them when I saw the photo op. 🙂
You are welcome for the pingback.
Thanks so much for the pingback! I appreciate it!
No problem. 😀
I love the way the lines of the stairs communicate with the trees. The framing is wonderful.
A technical question about pingbacks if I might. How on earth did you get all of us in your list? That would be 24 hours work for me with the way I do it!
Lol, yeah it could have taken me forever to get all the links, but I know a trick. If you go to the Photo Challenge page and scroll down, you’ll see a list of pingbacks. Use you mouse to highlight the links, then right click and hit the “view source” option. This will bring up the html coding for just what you have highlighted (the links). Then just copy and past the coding into the “text” option on your post edit page. 😉
Grant it you will have to do this a few times as there is more than one page of pingbacks. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the pingback! Beautiful photo! But what is at the bottom?!
You are most welcome, and thank you. 🙂
If I remember right, it’s a small path/road. The island is full of hiking/biking/horse trails.
Thanks for the mention of my entry! I appreciate it!
I have been to Makinac Island. I actually did some scientific study there while in college. We camped there! Beautiful!
You are most welcome. 🙂
Scientific research? Now you have me curious. What sort of research did you do?
Thanks for the pingback. Your stairs really do look like they go on for a long ways beyond the photo.
You are welcome. Trust me, when you are walking them they seem to go on forever, lol.
Thank you for the pingback! Cool pic!
You are welcome, and thank you.
