Turning Point (part 9)

Turning Point-Halloween Edition(part 8)

Another addition to the Turning Point Series, and a bonus Halloween shot at the very bottom of the post. These shots were taken at local parks, mostly Hawk Island Park in Lansing and the last fall photo of the series was Patriarch Park in East Lansing. I'm hoping to keep shooting this series to when snow just graces the ground so expect more to the series for a few more weeks.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Turning Point returns with a vengence! (part 7)

(sunrise photos all on Platte Lake)

The wait is finally over, new Turning Point photos are here! These are a compilation of a four day trip to the Traverse City area of the Northern Lower Peninsula. The colors weren't quite at peak yet but it was still very beautiful. It was a great vacation, including some great restaurants around Traverse.

(on the Platte River)

The salmon were running on the Platte while we were up I went out trying to catch a few but ran empty there. Whenever I ran empty on fish I then would walk the river with my camera looking for wild life.The funny story is I ran into wildlife like herons and kingfishers while I was fishing, but when I gave up at fishing and went out for photos I saw zero wildlife...

(MSU Stadium not near Traverse City but a beauty all its own)

Turning Point (part 5)

Here's some photos for Turning Point from Sleepy Hollow State Park, nice place. I wish that it wouldn't have been so overcast up there, but still I enjoyed my time. Very quiet, not a lot of people around.

Turning Point (part 4)

The series continues with some shots from a sunrise near the southern end of MSU's campus (below) and a few shots along a Red Cedar River trail in Okemos and Meridian Twp.

In other news I have a story published over at Great Lakes Echo, check it out if you're interested in Great Lakes issues.

Turning Point: Michigan Autumn (part 2)

Part two of the Turning Point series, these shots were taken over the last weekend at Rose Lake. Storms rolled in all weekend dropping rain and temperatures.

Turning Point: Michigan Autumn (part 1)

I was recently asked to work on a series about the change to fall. I'm pretty excited about this. The series concept just has my imagination so I'll be scouring Michigan documenting the transitory nature of the coming season as a part of a special series. Perhaps I'll put together some prints or even look into making the series into a book. Get ready for some crazy color!
