Can’t remember if I shared this here before or not, but here it is again. I was at Presque Isle Park in Marquette, Michigan on Lake Superior a couple months ago. The tiny leaves of the quaking aspens caught my eye and held my attention. I sat at a picnic table nearby for a long time, just listening to the water and the leaves fluttering in the breeze. It was the peace my heart and soul needed.
As an aside, the breakwall light is in the background. As teenagers, we’d walk out to it—first on easy cement, then jumping between large rocks with gaps between them. Once, my cousin dropped his camera into a gap. Some guys stopped to help, lying on the rocks and reaching down until one came up with a camera, his arm scratched and bleeding. Except—it wasn’t my cousin’s! It was a similar cheap camera, rusty and beat up from being down there who knows how long. OMG, what were the odds?

Duluth - Canal Park On Ricoh GRIIIx
Were heading up north last weekend and stopped in Duluth to get out of the car and walk around the canal/harbor for a little bit. We got there just in time to see the largest ship on the Great Lakes pass under the lift bridge into the harbor. I didn't get any photos of the ship, unfortunately; I was parking the car and dropped my wife and kiddo off so they could cat…

#LakeSuperior“There’s something pretty fitting about photographing the night sky from a spot where lightning struck the rock long ago. And on this night, it felt like everything was lining up just right—the textured rock in the foreground, Lake Superior stretching out toward the horizon, the distant lights along the North Shore, and the Milky Way rising overhead.” - Hayes Scriven

Lake Superior gave me one last perfect scene before I head home to Virginia tomorrow. The Marquette shoreline, the clear water, and those magnificent clouds — I’m going to miss views like this.
