Turning Point (part 10)

The colors are fading and giving way to the next stage of fall, on much subtler but still has a beauty all its own.

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.

Walking through roses

Went a a quick walk through the Rose Lake Wildlife Area with a friend this afternoon before work. It was refreshing getting out into the woods for a bit today getting some tranquility. Shot some macro of the beautiful fungus along the trail.

Morning Nature Walk

Went out this morning just for a short photo walk of nature. Here's some highlights.
