This photo was taken from Grand Haven, MI on the shore of Lake Michigan. There’s a power plant far in the distance spewing water vapor into the atmosphere. A long exposure made this look really apocalyptic to me, which is a fun exercise because this is in fact a beautiful beach and town.

Hello fellow bloggers–I’ve entered into a photo contest in which the winner gets their photo featured in the Grand Haven Visitor Magazine. I would be grateful if you could take a look at the contest and vote for my photo, if you feel it is deserving. Click on the image below to vote. Thank you for your help!
This is the Grand Haven pier beneath the Milky Way, taken in August. The bright object in the sky to the left of the lighthouse is Mars. The orange glow to the right emanating from the horizon is likely from Chicago (southwest of where this photo is taken).

Good Morning! I have entered nine photos into the ArtPrize 10 art competition in Grand Rapids, MI. They’re on display at Sweet Yo’s Frozen Yogurt Shop downtown. The competition lasts for two weeks (9/19 – 10/7) and spans the entire city. Entries can win based on either the public vote (voters must be physically in Grand Rapids) or a juried vote. If you live in the West Michigan area, I would be grateful if you would check out my entry in person. If you live outside of the area, I would still appreciate you checking it out. Here’s a link to my entry: www.artprize.org/66668. Any “likes” or shares are helpful! Thank you!

Every weekend the town of Grand Haven, on the Lake Michigan “coast” (as I like to call it), puts on a musical fountain show across the Grand River which feeds into the big lake. Some photos are below. The brightest “star” in all of these photos is Venus.

Good Afternoon, fellow bloggers. I have two photos in the West Michigan Tourist Association photo contest. I would be super grateful if you could A) go to the WMTA Facebook Photo Contest post here (this takes you to Facebook), then give my photo(s) a like (if you feel it’s deserved) and also share on Facebook. You can like both of my photos (shown below). Check out other people’s photos too–there’s good stuff showing the beauty of this state.
First place would get my photo on the cover of their 2019 West Michigan Travel Guide, plus a couple of nights at the JW Marriott downtown which my wife and I would enjoy 
. Second and Third Place would get my photo in the magazine but not on the cover.
Thank you for your time and support!
Photo 1 (takes you to Facebook): Downtown Grand Rapids, MI at night. Long exposure.
Photo 2 (takes you to Facebook): The full moon setting over the lighthouse in Grand Haven, Michigan.
On a final note, I apologize for my absence on the blog. I’ve been preparing for the Grand Rapids ArtPrize competition in September/October and haven’t had much time to post. I will rectify that soon!

This was taken in Grand Haven, MI looking west, shortly before moonset (full moon) in March. Sunrise was about a half-hour after moonset on this morning. This is from the same morning as photos I posted a couple of weeks ago, except closer to sunrise from the east. The sky was getting progressively bluer.
