The Sweetwater Seas

Ludington State Park

Last September I rolled into Ludington State Park for a one-night stay on my way back from filming in Traverse City. I had never visited this park before, so I spent the evening walking the dunes and looking for images. To my surprise, while the campground was almost full, no one else was out wandering the dunes – much to my pleasure. Having the place to yourself gives you time to wander and take in the place and space you are in. It was interesting to find areas without any footprints in many places. It was a peaceful evening filled with images everywhere.

In the morning, while folks were still not out on the dunes yet, I flew a drone over the area before heading back home. Enjoy.

Cheers,
Richard

Line 5 The Greatest Threat Under the Great Lakes

For those who aren't familiar with the issue, Line 5 is an Enbridge-owned oil pipeline that runs beneath the Straits of Mackinac. It is actually two 20-inch pipelines that run along the bottom of the Straits, a five-mile span of pristine water separating Lakes Michigan and Huron.
