The first submission for our Great Lakes border challenge captures a colorful vista along the Ohio-Ontario border.
Echo-reader Mike Gora snapped this photo from the eastern shore of Middle Bass Island in Ohio’s share of Lake Erie. The double-rainbow connects the easternmost point of Middle Bass Island (left) and the smaller, private Ballast Island (right), both of which are located in Ohio.
Below the rainbow’s center is a glimmer of Canada’s southernmost landmass, Middle Island, Ontario. The view offers 10 to 15 miles of the United States/Canada border.
