Posted @withregram β’ @natgeotravel Photo by @MichaelGeorge / Thereβs a single road that leads to the Miscou Island lighthouse. On either side, brilliantly red moss peat bogs sit there waterlogged, so heavy that the only thing keeping them afloat seems to be their color. And oh, what a color it is. The Earth saved up all its red paint for this one small area. My eyes (and my camera) could barely process the brightness that stretched out to the horizon. We arrived there in the pouring, freezing rain. Determined to walk the boardwalk, I pulled on my soaked gloves and protected my camera as best I could. A few teenagers ran screaming from their cars to get a quick look. We let the cold sink in and I laughed at the pops of green within the red. It was like we were stuck in someoneβs Christmas-colored fantasy. This is the only place in the world Iβve seen such a consistent and striking saturation in a landscape. It felt like the leaves were glowing with their radiance. Seeing this color pop, even on the grayest of gray days, I couldn't help wondering what itβs like to witness when itβs sunny.
