Waterfalls

photos@dcclark.net (David Clark Photography) — Fri, 10 Dec 2010 17:54:21 GMT

]]>Upper Peninsula Waterfalls
All but one of Michigan's named waterfalls are in the Upper Peninsula, and many of those are located in or near the Keweenaw Peninsula. The landscape is so rugged that almost every stream and creek has a small waterfall hidden on it somewhere -- many of which are known only to locals and explorers.

My Explorations
Waterfalls fascinate me. Finding a hidden waterfall deep in the woods evokes a feeling of true exploration -- finding something nobody has ever seen before. Many waterfalls featured here are far off the beaten track, found by chance or word of mouth.

Nature

]]>The Wild Keweenaw
The Keweenaw contains a huge variety of terrain: tall cliffs, flat plains, ravines, rivers, lakes, and plains. With the last copper mine closing more than 40 years ago, the land has largely been left to regrow. We are now surrounded by beautiful sights in every direction, and in every season.

My Explorations
Rare is the weekend you won't find me outdoors: hiking, biking, snowshoeing, or finding any other way to enjoy our beautiful land. My particular interests include the strong lines and colors formed by trees, leaves, snow, and light.

Flowers & Leaves

]]>Lonely Leaves
Every photographer has an inexplicable urge: some subject to which he is drawn. Mine is lonely leaves -- on a rocky path, hanging from a tree in winter, floating in a stream, or anywhere else. Lonely leaves share much in common with abandoned mine ruins and desolate landscapes: a sense of loss, emptiness, and decay, but also tenacity and strength to endure.

Ruins

]]>Copper Country Ruins
Centuries ago, European explorers found pure masses of copper literally sitting around on the ground in Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula. A huge copper mining industry grew, becoming the United States' first major mining region, even before California's Gold Rush. But by the end of the 1960s, every mine had closed, leaving only decaying buildings and ruins behind. Nowadays, few buildings remain, and nature has reclaimed many old mining sites. It's an almost daily occurrence to come across an old rock foundation or a barely marked shaft while wandering through the woods.

My adventures
Exploring Copper Country ruins is one of my favorite pastimes. Ruins evoke a feeling of starkness, and a past which has been lost -- leaving the Keweenaw with no clear direction. I try to evoke this same feeling with my photos.

The Keweenaw peninsula is filled with high cliffs, dense forests, beautiful lakes, grassy plains and rocky beaches. Even with my many years of exploring the Copper Country, there's always something new to see.
