The Great Lakes, a place well known, yet so undiscovered. My photography in The Great Lakes focuses on the surrounding counties near my home, primarily Medina & Summit in Ohio. I’ve always been amazed by the balance found in nature in these areas. Open was taken in The Cuyahoga Valley National Park in an area previously known as The Coliseum at Richfield, 1974-1994, where so many historical sports games and concerts once took place. Now all that remains is a vast field that catches the clouds and sunsets effortlessly. Fawn at Dawn was also taken in Summit County on a country road where time appeared to stand still. My drive to work came to a halt to obtain the stillness I was fortunate enough to capture. The fawn remained unmoved for what felt like minutes. The Mirror was taken at The Metroparks in Hinckley, Ohio. Though I frequent the paths, this day, the reflection was different. I hope that when someone views my work, they feel engulfed by nature, possibility, and peace. Thank you for providing me the opportunity to share my images.
