My Trip Up North

My daughter and I recently traveled to the beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The reason for the trip was. for me to photograph and for her to have some downtime before she heads off to grad school.

We visited some of our favorite places as well as one or two new ones. I wanted to stay a bit longer but we had to get home and rejoin the real world.

If you have never visited Michigan's Upper Peninsula, do yourself a favor and make the trip. There are tons of places to make beautiful images just about any time of the year.


This image was made at the lower Taquamanon Falls. Moving water has always been one of my favorite subjects and there a many water falls in the U P that I have photographed.
I had brought along a 4x5 to shoot the falls, but I never took it out of the car.

I am hoping to go back in the fall to shoot fall colors if I can find the time. Maybe this farmer and his cow will still be out in the field.
