Marquette

Winter in Michigan. The Upper Peninsula is a forested region in Michigan bordering 3 of the Great Lakes and extending outward from Wisconsin. It’s connected to Michigan’s Lower Peninsula by the roughly 5-miles-long Mackinac Bridge, which spans the Straits of Mackinac. Sandwiched between the 2 peninsulas is Mackinac Island, a car-free vacation destination with the iconic 1887 Grand Hotel and the Victorian-era Fort Mackinac.

Last morning in Marquette Michigan, what a beautiful day to graduate from Northern Michigan University with my BFA 🤓
Up in the northwest UP of Michigan the granite lined cliffs get weathered away and change colors over the years!

Construction next door so difficult to find entrance to property. But no noise because it's winter. Checked in late, left early. Breakfast was decent.

My favorite picture. I woke up at 4am to catch the epic contrast of the pink sunrise and leftover blue hour. I am a student in Marquette and I am stuck between staying in University and pursuing travel photography. This trip would give me the confidence and help me build my portfolio so I am able to make my decision! Thanks for reading Brendan! #BvSCrete
