We got our first decent snow overnight this week, and the next morning was beautiful. I spent some time capturing photos at the parks in town.

This week I’m doing a throwback to this past summer. We went on a boat tour of the Tahquamenon River in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. These deer were cooling off at the shore of the river, and I happened to have a long lens ready.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating this weekend.
Gear: EOS R, EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6L IS.
For today’s photo, I’m going with a square aspect ratio. I don’t often do this, but I thought it was appropriate given the framing with the sunrise and the sliver of moon above.

Lake Leelanau is a gem in northern lower Michigan. We spent a weekend at a cabin up there. One evening we were presented with this beautiful view out our window. This is one of the few times I’ve reduced contrast and saturation in a sunset photo.

The Mackinac Bridge spans between Michigan’s Lower and Upper Peninsulas. This photo was taken on a rare fall day that was calm. The water temperature was chilly…probably around 55 degrees.

This was a really quick capture a few weeks ago, up near Wilderness State Park in Michigan. We were touring the fall colors and came across this scene that stuck out to me. I pulled the car over and captured this photo on my iPhone, attempting to take the shot fast enough to avoid blocking traffic. It all worked out and this became one of my favorite photos from the day.

I’m going to try and post photos on this site more often. To help me along on this goal, I’m starting a series called Photo Friday. A Photo Friday post will just contain a photo and a short description about how it came to be. So here goes…
I took this photo in Harbor Springs, Michigan a few weeks ago. We headed up there to visit the Tunnel of Trees, which can be gorgeous in the autumn. The reason I like this shot is because the lake and the sky disagree with each other: the sky being stormy and the lake completely calm.
Yes, I know what year it is. 🙂 I recorded this video back in December but finally getting to post it now. Even though I’ve been yearning for an R5, I decided to purchase an EOS R instead to replace my 5D Mark IV. Here’s a video about my thought process at the time.
