When life feels heavy, I create what I think of as a little filmstrip in my mind as I’m drifting off to sleep. I fill it with images of beautiful or comforting things, letting them take the place of the day’s hurts and tomorrow’s worries.
Here is today’s frame in the filmstrip - sunset on Lake Superior. It was a superb summer night in Upper Michigan.

Wild and windy day on Lake Superior. We stopped by the park after running errands, and I was reminded how much I’ve missed this view. There’s nothing quite like standing on the shoreline, letting the wind and waves wash everything else away.

I realized today that there's been a dark and moody theme running through my photography since the start of the pandemic. It isn't all my work, but it has been a constant addition and is different than what I did before.

I’m heading into a really difficult and emotional day, so I want to carry this frame in my filmstrip now instead of saving it for when I try to fall asleep.
The sounds of the Great Lakes—especially Lake Superior—always calm me. The shorelines and surrounding land may shift and change, but the lake itself remains a constant, beautiful in every season as I stand gazing out across the water.

Whitefish Bay is located on the eastern side of Lake Superior, with the international boundary between Michigan and Ontario, Canada, cutting across the bay. I've visited this beach countless times, and its allure never fades. It's incredibly easy to become lost in dreams while gazing out across the water.

This photograph was taken the same night as the dark orange silhouette I shared earlier. I haven’t modified the colors or hues in either image—both display the natural, distinct tones present at the time. There was roughly a 45-minute interval between the two shots, highlighting the beautiful contrast in the evening light.

It’s been a while since I’ve shared a photograph, but lately, I’ve been seeking out peaceful moments wherever I can find them. This seemed like a good place to start— a quiet winter day at Iroquois Point Lighthouse in Upper Michigan, standing strong against the cold. Visit my gallery to discover more.
