Lake Michigan, April 2021.
One of my favorite images of 2021. In fact, it was April's Image of the Month. An image made during a camping trip to beautiful Sleeping Bear Dunes.

Image of the Month, April 2021: "Ruins of Lake Michigan"
in journal
The pandemic didn't make traveling easy these last few months, so I've been working more locally. There's always somewhere new to discover nearby.
In my case, that was the Great Lakes. I'm very fortunate to have them so close and yet, I had never gave them the attention I know now they deserve.
I spent quite a few days camping along Michigan's west coast, all along Lake Michigan's shore. I found landscapes much more beautiful than I would ever imagine. And they have delivered big time.
Some of the images I was able to make there are some of my favorites. Among them, April's Image of the Month, "Ruins of Lake Michigan".
I made this image during a camping trip to Sleeping Bear Dunes. It wasn't meant to be a photography trip, but rather a few days to disconnect from daily life. And yet when I saw this scene I couldn't help it but to try to make an image with the very limited gear I had with me.

Camping in Sleeping Bear Dunes, Michigan

As much as I like the cold winter, warmer weather means camping season, and I wanted to start early. We spent a few days camping in Sleeping Bear Dunes, Michigan, and even though it was colder than I was expecting (it even snowed!), the trip was a success. Rachel and I got to spend time together, relax, experience nature, see beautiful places, and I even had time for some photography.
